Thread: How can I change non window guages?

  1. Default How can I change non window guages?

    Can anyone help? I need to make the flap guage an undockable window in my 737 panel. Because I'm running a triple wide monitor setup I just drag what inst. I don't have hardware for onto the center screen. But I have to keep flipping on the main panel to see the flap indicator. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Repsectfully,

    In the panel.cfg add a line at the bottom of

    [Window Titles]
    Window00=Main Panel
    Window01=Overhead Panel
    Window02=Console
    Window03=GPS Panel
    Window04=Yoke
    Window05=Radios / Autopilot
    Window06=Flaps


    Then create the window itself:

    [Window06]
    Background_color=0,0,0 //0,0,0 is transparent, if you want a colored background use the R,G,B values from "edit color" in MS Paint
    size_mm=100,100
    window_size_ratio=1.000
    position=0
    visible=0
    ident=10002 //Make sure you don't duplicate an ident
    window_size= 0.220, 0.300
    window_pos= 0.020, 0.020

    gauge00=B737_800!flap_indicator, 0,0,100,100

    You can copy and paste the above [Window06] for the round 737 Flaps position gauge.
    You can fool around with "window_size=" and "window_pos=" to size it and put it elsewhere. I hope this helps...Don
