    F6 Pop-up information.

    Just a personal note in that I prefer the smaller, finer text used in the vanilla MSTS to the size and style used in the OR display.
    I like the different colours to distinguish sidings from platforms but am not keen on the not-so-subtle display itself.

    Is this locked in or is there room for modification and does anyone else have any thoughts on this?

    I agree with you, especially with respect to the higher screen resolution possible with OR.

    Especially for large stations, the space for platform/siding names is very small, and the very large text overlaps and makes the names almost unreadable.

    Kind regards

      We have reduced the size of the station, siding names in the latest development build.

        Nice one Chris, the txt was a bit on the large size for my tastes as well.
