November 30, 200916 yr Question for some more experienced panel developers in FSX.is there any possibility in FSX to create window views like in FS2004 (via fixed windows through/with some .bmp file like frame of cabin window e.t.c.) ? It looks it is not anymore...??Also the same using standard views (not camera views) forward, right, left, rear... but with own .bmp files to simulate cabin side, front e.t.c. window.Of course I am talking about 2D panels.many thanks for any help or adviceregardsJM Jan Maca maca11 using PMDG 747 v3 P3D v 4.3

December 3, 200916 yr Hi,yes, it is possible. You need a little gauge with this code:<Element id="Element"> <FloatPosition>0.000,0.000</FloatPosition> <Visibility>1</Visibility> <CustomDraw id="CustomDraw" Name="fs9view:view"> <Size>1024,768</Size> <Bright>True</Bright> <CustomDrawParam id="ZOOM" Name="ZOOM"> <Value>0.8</Value> </CustomDrawParam> <CustomDrawParam id="Pitch" Name="Pitch"> <Value>0</Value> </CustomDrawParam> <CustomDrawParam id="Bank" Name="Bank"> <Value>1</Value> </CustomDrawParam> <CustomDrawParam id="Heading" Name="Heading"> <Value>270</Value> </CustomDrawParam> <CustomDrawParam id="OffsetUp" Name="OffsetUp"> <Value>0</Value> </CustomDrawParam> <CustomDrawParam id="OffsetForward" Name="OffsetForward"> <Value>0</Value> </CustomDrawParam> <CustomDrawParam id="OffsetRight" Name="OffsetRight"> <Value>0</Value> </CustomDrawParam> </CustomDraw>Along with a bmp you get exactly the same view as it was in FS9 with the fixed window. With different values on the heading setting you get LEFT, Right, etc. whatever you want. With pitch and bank you go up and down and with OffsetUp you can look like a bird down to your position.If you need more Info, just let me know.Dietmar
December 6, 200916 yr Author Hi, many thanks. Looks it would have some solution !You say it is a gauge, so it is XML programe ?JM Jan Maca maca11 using PMDG 747 v3 P3D v 4.3
December 6, 200916 yr Hi JMPls look in the SDK and navigate in the SDK under Panel and Gauges/Custom Parameters (C:) and you will find this:FS9VIEWOnboolYesTurn an auxiliary view on or off. FS9VIEWZoomfloatYes
