In simulation, you can press B to get the current altimeter setting.
Offline,
you can listen to the ATIS of the nearest field. Online, you can ask ATC
or
check the current ATIS or METAR of the nearest field.

For the destination field, you can tune the ATIS if it's within range and
you
are offline (sometimes online also), or you can ask ATC, or you can check
the
current METAR (online).


None of the simulators I've used have a B button or online or offline mode.
It sounds like you're describibg a video game.
