FSL Spotlight Window Not in Lower Left Corner P3Dv4.5 HotFix 3

Hello again! I am still having trouble getting Spotlight to work with P3Dv4.5. Yesterday I was advised to install Spotlight via the FSL Control Panel, which I did. Within the Control Panel it shows version 5.0.0.3 and "up-to-date". When I start up the FSLSpotlights Manager it shows the current version as v2.0.0.15. It recognizes my current A320x aircraft and "connected". When I load up P3D I am not getting a minimized window in the left corner of the screen as noted in the PDF manual. Further, in the Add-On menu within P3D all I get under the Spotlight menu is "disable Spotlight". 

Having read through several posts on this forum I am lead to believe there should be more options with the Spotlight menu in P3D. Also, I "think" v5.0.0.3 is for P3D v5 only? Is this correct? Should I uninstall Spotlight through the Manager and install v 2.0.0.15 via the .ZIP file located in the Downloads section?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Jeff

Hello Jeffrey.

When in the A320 aircraft you cannot modify Spotlights.

See here, for instance :

 

In short, as it is installed it is working and you don't need to do anything else with it

in the A320-X.

OK, how do I get this window to show up within P3D? Because it is not showing up as stated in the manual. I am sorry for this because I feel kind of lost about this.

You should be able to call it in non-fslabs aircraft.

But only in P3Dv4 - P3Dv5 went DX12 and caused any transparent overlay windows to stop being functional once and for all.
