Title: Purple dot on ND
Post by: B767300 on Wed, 28 Feb 2024 12:25
In this video you notice a magenta dot in the center of the ND around 4:25

Just trying to get proficient on this type, so what does that dot represent (waypoint?)?

Thank you all in advance.

That was just a remaining pixel from a magenta route leg :-) It has no meaning.

That situation file was created with version 10.0.0 in 2014. When I delete a route in a newer version, there'll be no pixel left, as far as I can see.

I realized I saw this dot today as well, but it's barerly noticeable.

It's the same situ as the video: 4 engines out.

I get the dot too, did reseting the route work for you?
