Hi there,

Today I downloaded traffic toolbox for FS2004 and installed it into my copy of FS2004 however in order to do anything with the toolbox after selecting an option from the tools menu, I have to press the windows key to minimise FS2004 before I can for example select an AI plane to look from the toolbox display, which is viewed when I go back to FS2004 after minimising it. Also whilst viewing the map facility with the toolbox i also have to minimise FS2004. Is this normal or is there a way of using the toolbox facility whilst inside FS2004 ? any info and help would be appreciated

P.S.  I have windows vista home premium operating system

Regards

Eddie

P.S.

In the sim, press [Alt+Enter] or use the View menu to switch the simulator to 'windowed mode' while using any of the TTBox tools. You'll then have the Windows task bar to work with and the 'tool' will display in front of the simulator when started or selected.
