I noticed that on the map, while flying this weekend, we had an upcoming TFR (yellow) for an airshow. Touching it brought up the little window with info which was nice, but it didn't give the effective time, only "Upcoming" (or words to that effect).

Did I miss something, and it's actually available? Or if not, can it be made available on the display?

TIA!

I ran into this today over Orlando. Not only did this not provide any useful information on effective date, etc., but the yellow TFR made everything underneath it unreadable. I couldn't find any way to turn this off.

This was a BIG deal in some pretty complex airspace. Luckily, I had a moving map display running on my iPAD so I could see the sectional. Without that I would have really been screwed.

This needs to get fixed ASAP.

TFRs can be both turned down or turned off completely under MAP MENU > MAP ITEMS. You can both adjust the zoom level TFRs appear at, and also turn down their opacity. At 0% you'll still see a ring.
