• 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.

XML guage needle image

Hi, need some help with an XML guage in msfs. I am trying to modify the g3x touch mod for the king air. I have just got started learning CSS and js. I am trying to modify the engine gauges and want to change the needle pointer. The code I found for the gauges is in panel.xml in the original panel folder for the king air. I want to swap the existing triangle pointer for an image (made a PNG does it need to be a bitmap?).
The issue is I can't find how to insert an image, the tags are
<Cursortype>triangle</Cursortype>. Would be grateful for some help as other guages seem to be js instead of XML. Also would an XML file have a style sheet as I'm not sure how to alter the appearance of other elements.

Thanks
