Compaq Aero 1550 question

[[email protected]]

Hi,
Trying to run Glide Navigator II on an Aero 1550, and at the bottom of
the screen there's a bar showing program name, clock, and keyboard
button. This bar obscures a critical part of the screen showing wind
direction, etc. I can't find the way to hide this bar, but believe it
can be done. Anyone know how to hide it?

Many thanks,
Paul

Are you sure you are running the correct version of the program?
There is a different version for models prior to the 1550 such as 1530
and 1520.

If you are running the correct version, the status bar will be removed
on startup.

If, while running GNII, some other application is started by pressing
a function key, etc., the status bar will also display. To get rid of
this, just "restart" GNII by using the start menu.

Hi,

One additional suggestion.

If you are using the 1520 or 1530 version on a 1520 or 1530, you will also
need to enable the taskbar to "autohide". Go to Start/Settings/Taskbar and
check the "Auto hide" checkbox. The taskbar will then hide. The bring it
up you need to touch the very bottom edge of the screen with the stylus.

Good Soaring,
