I have a number of approach plates saved as PDF files which I can view through the user documents section under the heading 'plates'. I can't seem to get them full screen though. I can only view them on the right hand side of the screen with a list of my user documents on the left.
Is there a way I can make my PDF full screen?

Isn't there a Fullscreen button at the top?

Nope, looking at it now. I've got my user documents listed on the left hand side. I select one and it appears in "preview" on the right hand side, with the user document list still on the left.

Would you mind posting, or emailing us, a screenshot?

Copying the screen shot doesn't seem to work in a post, or in your email page. Can you provide an email address I can send it to directly?

Or let me know how I can get it from my photos to post on a message

support at skydemon.aero should get the screenshot to us. Mention it's for me.

Thanks, I got it. That's very strange and unfortunately I have no explanation for it. Do you get the button when viewing any AIP plates, or purchased plates? What version of iOS is your device running?

I am using iOS 5.1.1 which is the most up to date my iPad will handle.

With the free AIP they automatically open as full screen plates, but I'm obviously not selecting them from the same list as my own plates.

AIP plates should also appear in the document browser, I couldn't work out why they weren't in your screenshot. Please try using the Download AIP facility (you don't have to let it complete) then go back into the document browser so you can see the AIPs listed as well as your user documents, then see if the Fullscreen button appears.

It might be that iOS 5 doesn't support adding a custom button (which we're doing) to the PDF viewer, but that's just a theory.
