Issue with added window gauges

[rjfon1 0]

Good Morning all.

I am attempting to learn about panel designs and more specifically windows.

I have attempted to install two extra windows which are a 'Standby PFD' and 'CRJ-700' radio windows onto the default 737-800 panel.

Problem is when I attempt to open the window, the PFD flashes onto the screen for a split second and disappears, and the CRJ-700 radio panel comes up, but only as a black square. It is the right size, but it is blank.

 

Here is the code. Can anyone assist, and if so, educate me so I don't bother you with the same problem again. The added windows are 14 & 15. This is not a pure default panel, as I am using a retrofit ISGSIM FMS package. Everything else works fine except for the added windows. I have highlighted my changes in red.

Thanks in advance.

Rob.

Copy Bombardier_CRJ_700.cab from the CRJ's panel folder into the B738's panel folder and try it again.

In addition, try giving these gauges a size...

Thanks guys. On nightshift so I'll give it a try tonight.
