User waypoint names - bpieke - 01-08-2023

The GTN format is USRxxx, but on my G3X, I can only see USRxx

Does the GTN only export 5 characters, or is the G3X truncating the name?

Hello Bert,

After looking into this, we will add 6 character support to sending the ident to MSFS. This is not a guarantee that each and every MSFS gauge will display all characters, but we hope that this will work well. It has been confirmed via the SimVarWatcher that MSFS receives a 6 character ident.
