Xplane Screen Glitch

Fairly recently, I've encountered a problem in x-plane which has been quite irritating. I couldn't find anything like it in the forums, so I would be incredibly greatful if someone could help me sort it out.

 

The Problem:

In all of the aircraft that I fly, the bottom left corner of the screen seems to be frozen. In this approximate area, I cannot press any buttons or do anything. This is extremely bothersome in aircraft that have BATT, avionics, generators etc. in this region (such as the default C172) as I cannot fly a realistic flight starting from cold and dark. I've tried playing around a bit with settings, but nothing I've done has made any difference. If it helps at all, I've noticed that these buttons do work in the 3-D panel, but not in the standard 2-D.

 

I'm running x-plane 9.70 (I had the same issue in 9.69) on an Imac with OSX 10.5.8. Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

 

I have the same setup as you and have no problems. Yours may very well be isolated. Although this is a VATSIM/XPlane forum you may find better luck going into a XPlane Hardware forum. do you belong to XPlane.org?

Check your preferences and plugins. I also don't have the same issue with that setup, so those are more likely.

Wow, thank you both so much!!

 

You were right about the plugins Brendan. Turns out I had an invisible plugin window in that area.

I really appreciate it!

When in doubt, always delete preferences. If that doesn't work, plugins are quite possible.
