Hi all,

 

I read in the manual that the messages in the message window will be in light blue when they are intended to you. Still when I get messages from controllers, they are in white/gray and therefore hard to follow from all other messages not attended to me. There is also not a different sound when a message arrives dedicated to me. Haven't found any parameter or setting for this so how is it possible to get this to work? Would ease up the communication very much as I use text only on VATSIM.

I'm not in front of my computer at the moment, but as far as I can remember, messages that come in text form over the ATC frequency are gray if they are for the general public and white if they're for you specifically. It's the private messages that are directly between you and the controller, or you and another pilot, that are in light blue. They also come in a separate "tab."

Cheers,
-R.

I need to update the manual ... it's out of date.

 

Text radio messages directed to you are white. Others are gray. Messages that you send out are light blue.

Hi

 

OK, thank you for your answer. Have to look, in my opinion messages are all grey but indeed the ones I send are blue. Is it possible to make the ones directed to me stand out more, or even make colors a property to change to your liking

 

Anyway thank you for a superb software.
