Probably doesn't make sense yet, but allow me to elaborate.
A friend and I are reworking the panel (and VC) for the Aerialfoundry CF-188 hornet. It has three main MFD's, one left, one right, and one down low and centre. These three have certain functions, such as HSI, attitude, engine info.
We have included eric marciano's Radar gauge that pops up in the 2D panel right overtop of the right MFD by pressing SHIFT+7, it is fixed and locked in position right overtop of it to look as if you just switched the display info on the MFD.
We are trying to do the same thing for the Virtual cockpit, but are absolutely stuck. What we want, is to be able to use the HSI (right MFD) whenever we want in flight, but simply click a button (or press a key command) and have the Radar pop up over the right MFD in the VC.
Is this even possible? Is it really complicated to do? If you don't understand what I'm asking, I can provide images to try and explain.
We're both very smart people and pick things up quickly, and would be more than willing to build the gauges ourselves. WE just need to know if the efforts are in vain, or if its actually possible to do. And if so, where do we start so we can learn how to do this?
Thanks in advance for any and all assistance!
