So do I save that code as 738M2A.xml then put that XML file and the Switcher bitmap into a .cab file then the .cab file into the Flightsim 9 Gauges File?

Hi RyanDon't know that gaugeJust change and try the click code in your gauge. the only difference from your code is the panel ident numbers. You will need an icon gauge on each panel view with each click code.
