Hey PMDG how about using GDI graphics for the standby instruments such as ADI, and the needles for the gauges. As you know the refresh rate for the gauges is slow and can be jerky. I hope you consider my idea for the 747-400. AlexPS: Any new screenshots ? There was a screenshot of the main 2D panel of the 744 posted by Marc H. a while ago..but that was a long time ago so the link is inactive, can someone please post that screenshot again. Thanks :)

Hmm, what about fps then? As I understand it, GDI is a real frame rate sucker. Thus not using it in every single little gauge improves performance.Wolfgang

A couple of needles and ADI wouldnt effect FPS that much would it ? Plus smoother gauges would improve the overal experience in a small little way :)Alex
