How do I Add a Background Polygon to an Airport?
This applies to FSX and P3D only. Airport background polys are used to flatten the airport area, mask land class and exclude autogen
Select Add Polygon Mode
Click the Polygon Tool button to put ADE in Polygon drawing mode
Draw the Polygon
- Use the mouse cursor and buttons to draw the polygon to the desired shape. Remember to double click for the last placed point to complete and close the shape.
Set the Polygon Properties
When the property dialog opens:
- Select Airport Background as the Type
- Select Flatten Mask Class Map ExcludeAutogen as the Tag
- The altitude is set to the airport reference altitude so leave that alone
- Click OK to save the properties

The ability to select multiple items at once for group modification would be sweet. But love your program!
