Hi Garry,

No.. the instrument lights are fine... I've been meaning to ask the question for a while, but kept forgetting. The instruments are fine, but the switches etc are very hard to make out in the dark. Not sure If I was msing something.

(probably my age creaping up on me!)

Thanks

No floodlight unfortunately Ben, buy yourself a stronger pair of glasses ;-)

Or fly at daylight!

You can add a bit of background glow by editing the panel.cfg

This section at the end
[Color]
Day=255,255,255
Night=24,24,24
Luminous=220,220,220

Raise the 'Night' numbers & the backgrounds will be a bit brighter.
'Luminous' does the intensity of the instrument lights.

Whatever you set, it never seems quite right to me.
