**In the header line you see left the now chosen runway to be edited, and at the right a button "'''''Copy to All'''''". With this button you can copy the settings you make here to all the other runways - so e.g. for EDDF with its 8 runways you can save a lot of time! With that copy only the numeric-values will be changed - all the selection-markers will remain as are in each unique setting table. ''<small>(e.g. the length-definitions will be copied for all - the markers "Landing" will remain unique!)</small>''. These settings will then be saved separately for each unique runway and airport in you private settings.

**With "'''''Main switches'''''" you define which functions may be available for that runway. Usually you can define for each runway as well a "Starting" as also a "Landing" function. In the given example for EDDF there is a complication: Per Law you may

:::'''may not''' use runway 36 at all --> thus disable both lines: All data for that runway disappear

:::'''use''' runway 18 for "Starts" only --> thus enable "Starts" only

:*The "'''''Extended center line'''''" are the blue lines you see in the picture "Typical runway/approach definitions" [[File:OpenRadar-Approach.png|thumb|right|250px|Typical runway/approach definitions]] at the right. If you want that line you may define how long it should be. Some people do not want it reaching over the whole screen. We suggest to limit it to the MPserver-range of 100 mi. It will only be visible for the runways defined for "Landing"!
