• 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.

Hi.. I've been for almost 3 years developing a highly professional B737-200 panel and now I'm stuck on something maybe some of you can help.... I want to create an approach view.. with a closer view of the center of the pilot's view but I need to add a clickspot or a panel icon button to activate this view without the need to add a SHIFT (number) that are all used in my panel... and I do not have any Idea to how to do that.... how to create them and link them to the new window that will display the approach view... kinda like the flight-1's 727.... Please somebody help me with this matter....

thank you very much in advance

PD Im working with abacus panel studio and free existing gauges since I don't know how to create them.
 
So you think of somethink like a Camera which is a Gauge?

Mabye you can definied a Camera in Gauge?:o

Another Idea is to make this Gauge Transparent so you can look from
the Cockpit dirict outside but I think the problem will be that than you will not
have the correct Angle.:confused:
 
HI,
you really mean just a simple ICON to toggle your APPROACH window ?
A click like this
1010 (> K:PANEL_ID_TOGGLE)
in a little XML ? Whereby in this the 1010 is the window ident .
Or do I miss something ?

Indeed, it is rather simple. You need two separate icon gauges, one for the main panel and another for the landing-view panel.

main panel icon:

<Click>0 (>K:PANEL_ID_CLOSE) 1000 (>K:PANEL_ID_OPEN)</Click>

landing-view panel icon:

<Click>1000 (>K:PANEL_ID_CLOSE) 0 (>K:PANEL_ID_OPEN)</Click>

The operation is simple, close one panel and open another, then reverse the process! :cool:
