Default G3-how do you set up to see runway at all times?

I want to practice IMAC and need to see the runway to practice straight lines? I understand that you can set up the sim to see the runway at all times, how do you do this on G3?

There is a check next to keep ground in view. Does this allow the runway to stay "aligned."

thanks

on g2 I setup a second window view that I keep in the upper left or right of the screen. That window has a closeup view of the model (maybe 30 ft. away??). The main window is set to view ground at all times and the auto zoom is set to take over at much farther distance. In the main view the plane will be very, very small, but the closeup window is there at all times to see a closeup orientation of the plane. I use this for practicing pattern and it works o.k. if I use a sky that has a gradient as it approaches the ground. THis helps with altitude orientation. I also keep the navguides in one corner that display heading and "y" position (position out from the runway). After some practice I began to use the rudder like you are supposed to...nearly all the time to maintain heading.

just my 2 cents...

I believe G2 had a feature that allowed the runway to be seen at all times and you could change the size of the airplane. Is there a way to do this with G2?

Hey where is the G3 superpro??? I know there is someone out there that has figured this out. I can't seem to get a reply from realflight support.
