Anybody know why the data labels in Map show up as blank boxes - i.e. no information on the frequencies, etc.?
This is seen when choosing Equipment in menu option and selecting Map and then clicking on Data.

what version of FG are you using? your profile says version 2 and that's really really really old...
"You get more air close to the ground," said Angalo. "I read that in a book. You get lots of air low down, and not much when you go up."
"Why not?" said Gurder.
"Dunno. It's frightened of heights, I guess."

Apologies - have been away from FG a while. Had not updated my profile. Have now.
FG 2017.1.3 (so, not the latest)
Windows 7
1 GB RAM, and an old machine
Unable to tell if this is a problem with my ancient machine and graphics card or due to the sophisticated new interface on FG 2017. Most likely former.

yeah, probably the former... what video card do you have in that machine?
also, if you can, i'd see about updating that RAM... winwhatever is going to take a lot of it and then you need a bunch more for FG...

Did you activated the route on the route manager?

Thanks for getting back on this one.
Unfortunately I only have integrated video so that does not help - though it was not an issue in MUCH older versions.
RAM is in fact 4GB rather than 1GB.

No, I did not use route manager.
I am trying to bring up navigation data inside the Map facility. While some boxes turn up when I click on the 'Data' box within Map, these boxes are empty though they should contain details of the Navaids.
Thanks for enquiring.
