However, in case you still strive for this: In AIP: FMC Padova Central has an upper limit of "lower vertical limit of overlying controlled airspace". In Skydemon: FMC Padova Central has an upper limit of 5000 ft (In the screenshot, the overlying controlled airspace starts at FL85, so Skydemon is actually 3500ft off.)

We had to choose a value for the upper limit of the FMC area so with the advice of an Italian pilot with knowledge of flying in the area we settled on 5000 for the moment.
