The panel lights

Hi
When i turn on the panel light, the panel lights turn on and then a second light also comes on making everything a whole lot brighter.

So, is there a way to keep that second light from comign on or is that just the way it is in FSX

examples

What i don't want, second light that comes on.

What i do want, how it looks without the second light.

Is there a way to keep the second light that makes the cockpit brighter from coming on?

Thanks

I think you should start by telling us which a/c that is. Looks like a payware add-on to me in which case you probably have a little dedicated switch on one of your pop-up panels.

That's only one of the possible scenarios. Tell us if this happens when you fly different a/c and which ones.

the landing lights is what he means.. It illuminates the ground and the panel. At high altitude and while taxi you can keep them off.

Hi Folks

truckernick -
It's the cockpit lights that give the general area illumination.

L turns on/off all lights.
Try operating them independently from the popup or overhead panel.

Need to check,
but it's possible on some models,
that the panel & cockpit lights may function,
as if they're on a ganged switch.

ok when you turn your landing lights on it will make the panel lighter

when there off it gets darker

for a full list of your light controls see what you have set to in you key options

and then just fool around with it
