Detail View?

[Randy1]

I have been through I think the whole site and cannot find information on the functions listed below.  Can someone point me in the right direction?

Full Visibility………………..…………SHIFT F1
Medium Visibility……………………..SHIFT F2
Short Visibility………………...………SHIFT F3
Ground Visibility (must map)…..……SHIFT F4

Full vis let's you see farther, but more taxing on the PC and vice versa.

Go up to 15K or more in a plane and you'll see the difference.

I will do just that.  Do you know which one is the normal or default setting?

[FLS]

Normal is full viz. Use full viz unless you have frame rate issues. Ground vis changes the distance that trees and bushes appear.

but use ground vis in tanks, it shows trees, etc, further out, which is important.

Almost everyday I learn something new. It never occured to me to use Ground Viz in a tank. BTW, what does it mean "(must map)" for Ground Viz?

In case shift F4 doesn't toggle ground detail you must assign or "map" the command to shift F4 or to your own preference.

I need to remap my MFD to put these to use.  I don't think there is a place on the AH web site that describes these functions best I can tell.
