user resolved MFD Fly to Cue Migrates out of MFD?

[Leg2ion]

Hi All,

Anyone else noticed the MFD fly to cue in the flt page migrating outside the MFD display?

I have the MFDs exported to a Helios setup, so thought this may be the issue, as per the below:

But then noticed it was doing it in the main view also:

Also notice the cue stuck at the far right of the main view screen on occasions, normally when in I am in a banking turn/holding pattern, which then gradually fades away.

Hi, 

we have been unable to reproduce, it may be due to the way you are exporting. 

Can you add your dcs.log and the monitor.lua so we can take a closer look.

thank you

Here you go.

dcs.log HeliosFinal.lua

Thank you for attaching, nothing is jumping out at me as being wrong. I will try to get the team to take a look also.

Found the culprit. Its Helios. If I apply (Helios) patches - and the command line 'dofile(LockOn_Options.common_script_path.."ViewportHandling.lua")' is added to the MFCD init.lua along with a 'try_find_assigned_viewport' it causes the issue. Even if I use the standard viewport name the issue is created.

I knocked out the patches being applied to the pilot position and the issue disappeared - yet was still present in the CPG position.

One other side effect I noticed, is that prior to this the in game MFD displays were appearing washed out but the exported ones were not - and I was living with it. Once I removed the patches both displays (In Game and exported) appeared the same. Just conscious there have been a lot of historic posts on washed out displays...
