scottthefsxguy 0 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 As I do with all my aircraft, I add a GPS window in the panel file. Same model, same size, same location on screen simply by adding the text in the panel file for each respective aircraft. For whatever reason I am unsuccessful doing this in the Bronco. I do always put the text in 'window 01' that is mapped to the Shift+2 key on the keyboard. Anything already mapped to that I simply relocate to a different window placement keeping everything in order...00, 01, 02 etc. I've done this to dozens of aircraft and this is my first miss. Any thoughts? Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sieggie 8 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Try puting it at a different number to see it works at all. It is possible that since the Checklist is integrated into the plane quite extensively, it must remain window01 to work correctly. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottthefsxguy 0 Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 Did try window 04 (Shift+5) which was available and that didn't work either. I'll try a couple more and see. Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obie311 20 Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Here's what I use: (ref. previous post: http://forum.aerosof...-autopilot-mod/) Window01=GPS //--------------------------------------------------------- [Window01] Background_color=0,0,0 size_mm=456,378 window_pos= 0, .62 window_size= 0.200, 0.380 window_size_ratio=1.000 visible=0 ident=GPS_PANEL Type=SPECIAL//**optional only if you want GPS to remain visible when you change views. Otherwise delete this line// gauge00=fs9gps!gps_500, 0,0,456,378 gauge01=..\..\Maule_M7_260C\panel\Maule_M7_260C!switch_nav_gps, 0,220,30,35 Remember it only goes in the Aerosoft OV-10B panel folder. Hope this helps. Obie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottthefsxguy 0 Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 I'll try that. I was adding my GPS to all models Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obie311 20 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Actually Scott I was in error as you will have to eventually alter all the panel.cfg files. I just remembered that I used Aerosoft OV-10B as my test bed since it is kind of the base model for all the variants. Once you get the desired result you can export it to the other models. I replied from memory and at my age that was a mistake. The essence was correct but the specific was wrong. If you haven't done it already, I strongly suggest make sure you make a back-up of the original panel.cfg so you can go back to it if you want.
