I will second these requests, full screen, own chart page, and add my previous observation, the course line must be hidden. On such small real estate, the magenta line really covers some very important information as one is coming into the destination airport. The solution of touching the line so it is kind of out of the way is not at all practical in single pilot, no autopilot, flying.
Thanks,
Charlie

+1 for me as well. Everyone raved about the overlayed plates when FF did it. I thought it was silly and was thankfull I didn't have to deal with that with my iFly, well here we are. I think we all or at least us old farts trained with paper plates and are comfortable with that presentation. I still like the situational awareness I get from having the georefrencing but agree thta the magenta line can get in the way of needed wording.

From many past posts you are aware that I have always been a proponent of a fixed full page zoom level for plates.

Any update for this yet?  Also, I'd like to see a button somewhere to hide the approach plate.  Finding the airport and clicking on it to hide the plate is cumbersome at best.

Thanks!

This thread is from 2015. There is a lot that has changed since then. There is also already a button on the right side of the screen just above the +/- zoom button to hide plates, show plates, show full screen plates, etc.

Tim is correct.  When your approach plate is showing, there should always be the "Plates" button showing above your Zoom (+/-) buttons.  When tapped, it opens a menu where the top option is "Hide Approach...".   Does this button show for you?
