    The Driver Aid functions

    Could someone please explain a couple of the functions of the little pop-up Driver Aid for me?

    I am unsure of the purpose of the green vertical bar on the left - is it a visual guide as to how much time you have left to hit the anchors successfully before reaching the signal?

    Also, the numeral '12' inside the recatangle at the bottom of the display......what does that represent?
    The rectangle changes colour but the number remains static.

    If you are referring to the ALT+ F11 Driver Aid, it was an experiment. It is not longer actively supported and will be removed in the next release. However, the ALT+Shift+F11 path illumination will continue to be supported and developed.

      Oh.....that's a shame. I quite like that little gizmo.
      Not sure about the shining path......I haven't used that device.
