I have been flying your excellent C182 for over a year without any problems in the past. However, I recently came back to it after a long break and found that although the aircraft performs as normal in almost all respects the virtual panel has, what appears to be, a semi transparent larger scale 2D panel showing through behind the virtual panel. While the virtual panel is usable the effect is distracting and obviously not correct. The radio stack digits are, for example, too large and don't align with the windows as they should.
I have uninstalled/reinstalled the aircraft in my FSX system to no effect.
Only one thing has changed that I can think might have had an effect. Having updated to W10 in June 2016 I had a number of my my more complex simulator aircraft suffer graphic corruptions. (usually sorted by reinstallation). I don't remember the C182 being one of them. However in later sorting out another more general FSX DX10 issue, I did find I was no longer able to reinstall the Acceleration software after unistalling (Key problem) and had to revert to FSX with SP1 & 2. might this have a bearing on the issue.
I would appreciate your advice.

You will need to turn on High Resolution Cockpit Textures to eliminate this issue.

Re: Virtual Panel Corrupted
Thanks very much for your prompt help. Problem solved. I had tried this, but from within a flight, and got a CTD every time so got no change to the panel. Worked fine when I did it trom Settings on the initial splash screen.

Re: Virtual Panel Corrupted
Glad to hear you got yourself sorted out. If that setting has changed in your sim you might also want to go over your other sim settings in case of changes too.
happy flying
thanks,
Lewis

Re: Virtual Panel Corrupted
I have been flying the C182 in Prepar3d version 4 without a problem.
I switched to version 5 and just installed the C182 into It with the new installer and latest update. Now, the radio stack digits are too large.
I can’t find a “high resolution panel” setting to check in P3d v5.
I have already tried uninstalling and re-installing it. I have also checked my Windows 10 (1909) desktop settings and made sure that the text size is set to 100% with no effect. Everything else seems to work properly.
What is the solution for me?

please see here for the solution;

There is a bug in P3D itself causing an errand cfg setting to be set and not reset, the next P3D update from Lockheed should fix it.
