You can't, the menu has a timeout and it's the best way, because most users would be annoyed to have to press CTRL+F12 just to close it, if didn't had the timeout.

ok but the best would have to create an icon  because it is also very annoyed when you ask for a gate
to open many times with control+f12
thanks

I don't understand what do you mean with "Create an icon". Why do you have to "open many times when you ask for a gate" ? The timeout doesn't start if you are pressing keys, it's not as if the menu close automatically while you are using it, it only close after a certain time if you don't do anything.

i want to say that the time out is short and when you want for example to find a gate and see  a gates or b gates and find all gates occupied you have to reopen a lot of times control+f12
why you dont in the sttings let the choice to the user for the time out with the possibility to remain the screen open
thanks

If you keep scrolling through pages, the timeout won't start, it will only start if you don't do anything.

That's an entirely different thing and doesn't have anything with having a timeout or not, once you entered in a gate group, you can go back on the *same* group, but there's no command to go *up* to select another group so, even if the menu remained on screen indefinitely, you would still have to press a key to select a different group but, if we added an "up" menu option, which could only be a number from 0 to 9 and it will also *change* if the menu contained less than 10 items, it would be slower than now, were you just need to press CTRL+F12 twice, and since it doesn't change, it's even easier to remember, without even mentioning that adding an "up" option will reduce the number of menu items available for gates ( an FSX menu can only have 10 items), which means on airports with many gates in the same group the number of *pages* will increase because of this.
