Preview Screen-
As mentioned above, to quickly find the part in the Aircraft Parts Tree for
modification, you can simply click that part in the Preview screen itself. At times, you’ll
notice that the part you want to click might be hidden behind another section of the
aircraft. If you find yourself in this situation, click and drag the mouse cursor around
the Preview screen. This will rotate the aircraft image around, so you may view it from
different angles. You may also use the scroll wheel on the mouse to zoom in and out
for a closer look at the section you are working on.
Parameter Window-
The final component of the on-screen layout is the Parameter window. This window
will list all the parameters available for the currently selected part in the Aircraft Parts
Tree.
Clicking on the parameter will allow you to view a description of its use in the
Description pane directly below the Parameter window. This will also allow you to
modify the currently selected parameter.
Adding and Removing Components-
There are times when you may want to add a new component to the aircraft. The first
step is to determine the location for the new part. For example, if you were to add
flaps, it makes more sense to add them to the main wing, than to the fuselage.
