April 21, 200323 yr Well I am anxiously awaiting my copy of Briefing Time. Meanwhile I messing with the trial version. What I want to do when I get the full version is remove the GPS. I just dont want to screw it up, I have a pretty good idea what to remove but can someone help me so that I dont screw it up?Thanks Andrew Andrew
April 21, 200323 yr Commercial Member Hi AndrewWhy bother? You'll never see it unless you call it up with the icon or key shortcut. Or are you looking to install a better one. ;-)Here's how: Open the panel.cfg in Notepad. Scroll down to the GPS section and remark out the Window08 and the GPS gauge by placing // in front of them, like this:(note - I had to leave the brackets out below, or the forum will not show the entries.)// ----------------GPS------------------// Window08size_mm=258,388position=8BACKGROUND_COLOR=16,16,16sizeable=1visible=0ident=10008//gauge00=gps!gps, 0,0,258,388Save the file as a plain text file and that's all there is to it. The guage itself, being a default MS one, is not in the MAAM gauge set. Anything marked this way in the panel.cfg will be removed. Putting it back is a simple matter of deleting the slashes and resaving the panel.cfg.

April 22, 200323 yr Author Yeah I am going to remove it. I probably would be tempted and get lazy and use it. I want to try and fly around the world handflying and using strictly navaids. So I was going to remove for this trip.Well I will see how it goes anyway. Thanks BillAndrew Andrew
