Just downloaded V14. I love the graphics. When in map mode instruments the instruments overlap and obstruct each other. The other problem is that while I can be in full screen mode in protrait position it will only go to about 45% of screen in landscape mode (it believes it is in full screen mode). Has anyone else seen this and have you found a fix? I use mine exclusively in landscape mode.
V14 problems on mini ipad
- Thread starter khafner
- Start date
An update. I use my ipad in window'd mode to be able to use multiple apps while flying. When I turned this off things worked. The previous version worked well in window'd mode. So I turned it back on and now I can see ifly in full screen mode in the orientation that it is started in. It will not fix in that mode and if the ipad is rotated it rotates to half screen mode and goes back to full mode when rotated again. If you shrink the screen part of it goes off the edge but is usable. The instruments are no longer overlapping (they did need to be reset).

Hi, thanks for the report! Can you enumerate clearly what you are seeing. From what you've said, I'm going to translate into what I'm thinking you mean:
1. Instruments Mode - has overlap that isn't being fixed. Try "Map Mode => Customize => Select Layout => Reset Active Layout"
(does it give you this option?)
2. Full Screen (not windowed) mode for the iPad -- works fine. But you rotate it to orientation - it continues to work, but does not fill the screen, and instead stays in Portrait mode, but is now shortened to fit, while retaining it's Aspect Ratio? If so, this is known and currently "by design" as our app does not support Resizing or changing orientation of the App itself. This requires a restart, currently to change orientation.
Fixing this is on our 2026 plan.
OR -- does it just not work in Landscape mode, full-screen? (if you start it up in Landscape orientation) In which case, this is a critical failure.

I could use more explicit clarification on what you are saying here.
4. The instruments are no longer overlapping (they did need to be reset). <== sounds like you did what I suggested in #1 above already.

The program auto rotates and whatever position you start in will be full screen but the other orientation is not. When in full screen if you shrink your screen size part of it is hide off the edge of the physical screen. Half of the guages on that side are not visible.

How do I update to the V14 on my iPad?
