Hi Greg,
-
If the Charts Beta In-Game panel (IGP) was running when MSFS was closed, it will open when MSFS starts.
-
Ctrl-N is the equivalent of pressing i.e minimise, but without leaving the IGP minimised bar. Pressing again restores IGP. This should not be a blank screen and is being dealt with at Blank map in the new panel - #5 by alexberry. Make sure you have the latest IGP installed. For Navdata log appearing please see Using CTRL-N to bring up the in-game panel
-
The closes IGP, rather than minimising using Ctrl-N.
-
Seems like Ctrl-N is what you are seeking.
Hopefully this provides the info you need for the Beta test
Cheers
Ian
