Hi again!Sorry to post another topic so soon but I am having trouble yet again :( I am now trying to code an RMI for a 737NG panel and it is my last gauge that I have to do on it! :(As I said in my previous post, I am a beginner with little experience, if someone could help me out by posting the code and guiding me through what each part means that'd be great!I have made the background, mask, compass, needles and the vor/adf switches, now I need to animate them!Thanks

Hi!Some times is easier to use your artwork in a similar gauge and see what the changes did. You may try the 747 XML gauges for example.Javier

HiI've tried changing the artwork in a different RMI but the gauge disappears. I have made my own custom one now and it seems to be working OK.Thanks anyway!

It's rather complex for an RMI but I added some complex parts so that I looks better particularly with the whole RMI-DASHED stuff.Below is the RMI-Control gauge:

Here are all the images I used:http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b111/EV0317/FLAG-1.jpghttp://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b111/EV0317/FLAG-2.jpghttp://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b111/EV0317/FLAG-3.jpghttp://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b111/EV0317/RMI-1.jpghttp://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b111/EV0317/RMI-2.jpghttp://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b111/EV0317/RMI-CARD.jpghttp://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b111/EV0...RMI-CNTRL-1.jpghttp://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b111/EV0...RMI-CNTRL-2.jpghttp://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b111/EV0317/RMI-CNTRL.jpghttp://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b111/EV0317/RMI-DASHED.jpghttp://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b111/EV0317/RMI-MASK.jpghttp://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b111/EV0317/RMI.jpgOnce again there are complex Lvar's which govern my gauge so the coding would need to be dumb-down a little bit, such as my IRU lvars and my PWR and BAT-PWR lvars. And then replaced with the appropriate variables.

Good Day,
