Hi there I am using the skyview in Britain and all the danger areas are marked with yellow lines which is very difficult to see.
I am using the Pocket FMS info
Any ideas how to change the lines to red or does it have to be done by the FMS guys
Thanks for any help :)

Nope, you can adjust these. If you export your settings, you'll see a section called map_bling. The colors and other properties of the airspace lines are defined in there. Though the settings aren't documented, the basics aren't terribly hard to figure out. The colors are all standard hex pairs (see http://www.hexcolortool.com/ for examples), but appended to the end is a last pair that describes how transparent the color is. Put another way, from an old internal email:

"color0" and "color1" are hex numbers representing RGBA [A meaning Alpha, or transparency]. FFFFFFFF
would be 255, 255, 255, 255 or 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 - opaque white.
0000007F would be 0, 0, 0, 127 or 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, ~0.5 - 50%
transparent black.

This is what I use in the UK:

danger={
color0=FF5A01FF
color1=FF5A017F
color2=FF5A01FF
color3=FFFFFFFF
width0=2
width1=4
width2=6
cycle=20
fraction=0.2
outline=0
style=MAP_BLING_DRAW_STYLE_SOLID_TICKS
}
