 +Beside the question mark in the [[other/​title-bar#​window_action_icons|title bar]] you will find such little help icons all around in the program. 
 + 
 +This allows you to access context-related manual topics directly. 
 + 
 +===== Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 ===== 
 + 
 +FS-FlightControl also supports Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 since the first public release of this new simulator. 
 + 
 +But there are at the moment some limitations as certain functionality is not yet supported by the FS2020 SimConnect SDK: 
 + 
 +  * Weather cannot be controlled from outside the simulator yet. 
 +  * Not all view camera options are working yet. 
 +  * Slew mode cannot be controlled from outside the simulator yet. 
 +  * Directly send a flight plan to the simulator is not supported yet. 
 +  * TCAS intruder aircraft are generated on ground. 
 + 
 +As soon as those features got added to the FS2020 SimConnect SDK we will support them also with FS-FlightControl as soon as possible.
