Solid line blocking out data on SA / HSI!?

I have had this 'bug' or user error ever since I got the F18 module.

Can someone please tell me how to fix it so I can actually read the screens?

Thanks

In the bottom part you mean?

Yes that is a bug which is there from a long time

The "ADV-P/INS" text on the right is anoter example of the same bug.

The warning and advisory line(s) that appear on the bottom of the LH DDI are said to be realistic and a "feature" of the real aircraft.

The DDI Advisory "P/INS" is a warning Satellite communication is lost and the INS is not being updated with GPS data i.e. typically when INS is set to NAV rather than IFA.

I'm not sure the "blank" line should be there when there are no warnings but I don't recall a SME saying it shouldn't be there and ED have said it's correct i.e. not a bug.

So how do I clear it so I can read the bullseye bra data on the right?

Short version is that you can't.

In the real airplane you hold down the master caution button for a few seconds and it gets hidden behind the DDI display. In DCS this "hide behind the other info" feature isn't implemented so it blocks the display all the time.

Clearing your INS advisory would be a start.

But ultimately, that's why in the real jet sensors and navigation pages aren't put on the left DDI.

To sum up what others said:

1. Hold Master Caution. It will not delete, but will rearrange Advisories and Cautions (clears out free spaces in the line for advisories that are not longer present).

2. Simply do not put the SA page on the left DDI. For the Same reason you do not put your Radar page on the left DDI. SA normally is set to the AMPCD.

You actually only need to press Master Caution to do this, you don't need to hold it.

How do you view the Advisories again (in the real aircraft) after they've been hidden ?

Right, press once turns off Master Caution. Second press rearranges advisories.

As said, it does not hide or delete Advisories. You only can delete Cautions or Advisories by solving the advised problem. If there is none anymore, the problem may vanished, but of course it is possible that it comes back under certain circumstances.
