When I choose some objects in marcos sometimes there isn't a little picture next to it showing what it looks like does this mean it doen't work? ;)

No, it means the macro designer didn't include the image or you didn't paste it into the correct directory for Airport or FSSC to find it. The macro itself should be fine.

Hi Jonathon. The images are simply small screenshots showing what the macro looks like. If these are included the default location is FS Scenery Creator\Macros\Bitmaps. The macros themselves would be in FS Scenery Creator\Macros.

Another small trick I found out last night is that some macro files have a jpg or gif image and no bmp.if it is a single macro you can open the jpg or gif and save it as a bmp so that it will show up. Windows will ask relative to a gif image to ignore transparency and just click ok. Make sure to name it the same as the api. It just helps to be able to see what macro it is. It works for me in a few macros anyway. Regard Bertie
