I am about to release a scenery for Gettysburg Regional Airport. In P3D and FSX it appeared initially in a slight recess. In P3D I was able to correct it by moving the airport ICAO code from the enabled side of the
"Elevation Correction" menu to the disabled side. However the window for selecting the "Simulator version" is grayed out (Only Prepar3D is showing), why does it not allow me to make the same correction for FSX?
 
Are you saying when you open FTXC3 to select the simulator, it does not give you the FSX option,only the P3D option?

Not at all, the question concerns the FTX Global Vector Configuration Tool. It's a wholly separate item.
 
This is odd, but there's probably a reason for it. On the Elevation Correction Tab there is a window for the "Simulator". It appears to show a down arrow indicating that you should be able to switch between sims (If more than one is installed). However that's not the case. You must use the tool from the P3D Installation for any changes to that sim and the tool from the FSX installation to make any changes to that sim. Oh well.
 
Guys, you have to select the sim in FTX Central, then open the Vector configuration tool from there. FTX 3 is a bit different. Go to global, click on vector, you will find the control panel click there for vector.

Bloody Brilliant!! Figures I would go the long way around. However in the case of adjustments to the Vector portion, I now have two icons (one for P3D, one for FSX) I just click on the one I need, make the changes save and close. . .eliminates going through FTX Central, selecting the sim. . .etc, etc, etc.
