JSG Panel 787-9

[johankotze]

Jan, yes I'm also going back to the Munro panel, I just miss one switch though and that is NAV/GPS switch as in the default 737-800 panel. Any suggestions

Johan,

 

The only text for NAV/GPS in the manual is :

LNAV Button

Engages or disengages navigation

mode. When engaged the aircraft will

fly along the flight path already

entered in the flight plan. Note that

this button also automatically connects

or disconnects NAV1 to the GPS

navigation

In the default 747-400 is a Nav-Gps switch.

it's gauge00

 

gauge00=Boeing747-400!Nav-GPS Switch, 212, 98

 

Add that line to the bottom of your [Window00] section in the panel you are using to see it on the 2D panel.

 

You will have to also change the number to th next consecutive number in that [Window00] section. So if the last gauge is

gauge67

add this one as

gauge68

 

You will also have to copy the file:

Boeing747-400.cab

to the panel folder you are working on.

 

And then you will have to edit the coordinates of the gauge.

in the line:

gauge00=Boeing747-400!Nav-GPS Switch, 212, 98

 

212 is the horizontal position. (212 out from the left edge.)

and 98 is the vertical position (98 down from top of panel.)

 

Just try it out in fsx first, and see how it looks.

adjust the numbers, and reload the plane.

then see again.

(there is a keyboard shortcut for "aircraft reload"

you have to assign that function to a key yourself.)

 

If the switch is too big, add two numbers behind this, for the size:

212,98,30,30

for example.

makes the switch 30 wide and 30 high.
