Exhausted and seeking for gauge installation help

[Clarindo]

I have installed a gauge as [Windows11] in the panel.cfg file of an aircraft.

 

The [Window Titles] has this gauge as Window11=xx and [Windows11] is perfectly set with BACKGROUND COLOR, size,position,visible, ident,gauge00= and it is working adequately.

 

I would like to have this gauge also displayed in Cockpit 1 view of this aircraft. I can get to it by manually activating the menus Views + Instrument Panel + gauge name. And every time I move away from this Cockpit view position I have to once again repeat this manual activation to get this gauge to show again in Cockpit 1 view.

 

Realizing that this is not the best or cleanest description of what I am trying to accomplish and that the solution is probably a very simple one, and having already attempted so many times that further efforts are now on a steep decline of an unlearning curve I decided to look for a kind soul to help me out.

 

Would you care to assist? Have not tried asking Santa Claus recognizing he must be exhausted and with an empty bag of tricks.

Clarindo,

 

Is this gauge in the 2d panel or the VC panel? And where do you want it to show up, in the 2d panel or the VC panel?

Hint: [window08] will show when pressing ..........;)

 

This Santa is tired, and will use the next few hours winding down. But, tired of staring at the naughty/nice list. So post your panel.cfg and I will print it out and cast an eye over it. I May soon nod off, so no promises.

[Clarindo]

Sorry, unclegreg. How could I forget to mention that there is only a 2d panel?

 

Posting panel.cfg for the benefit of ill88pp. Wish I knew his address so that I could keep a noisy drone over his head to keep this Santa from falling asleep until an answer is pasted on the back of one overworked reindeer.

 

This panel has enough gauges to meet all the odd requirements of this odd sim flyer - yes, I know it has been overdone but to each his own...

 

Hope is alive for this late Xmas gift.

Missing essential information - SALS is the target gauge.

To be able to keep this popped up window active in every view so you don't have to keep going into the menu/view/instrument panel, add this line to where I will show:

Thank you, Mr. Zippy - Very, very much.

 

That is exactly what I was looking for and trying unsuccessfully to accomplish.
