To make Plane Plotter run automatically without needing to press the green start button, when you click the short cut on your desktop, change the Target Properties of the short-cut from:
C:\Tools\COAA\PlanePlotter\PlanePlotter.exe
to:
C:\Tools\COAA\PlanePlotter\PlanePlotter.exe /start
You can make the same alteration to the Start Menu short-cut as well. If you installed into a directory with spaces in the name (and please, not into Program Files), you need to keep the quotation marks only around the file name:
"C:\Tools\COAA\Plane Plotter\PlanePlotter.exe" /start
Follow the method given on this Web page. For the short-cut, use:
Target: C:\Tools\COAA\PlanePlotter\PlanePlotter.exe /start
Start in: C:\Tools\COAA\PlanePlotter
