• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

MSFS20 Display EFIS images, using Simconnect

Hey fellow Simmers, Nice to be here. I am working on retrieving data from MSFS 2020 using Simconnect api, it works fine, but now I would like to retrieve EFIS data (Image data updated frequently) and display it on a TFT screen using STM32 mcu. But I was not able to find any info about how to get the actual image of EFIS displays from MSFS while it runs. Can anyone help with this? Thank you in forward.
 
That isn't going to happen. The EFIS gauge runs inside of a WebAssembly "sandbox" that is 100% isolated from the system. The only option I know of is to drag a detached window of the EFIS to another display on your computer system.

Thank you for the idea WarpD! Can you send a tutorial, website, any detailed description about this methid, how exactly put a selected EFIS window on a specified display connected to the computer?
