Ultra-wide panel cfg available?

[rcoultas 21]

Hi guys,

Would it be possible to get a 21_9 panel config for the T7, like what was done for the 747? 

Thanks

Denied!  Sorry, I’m just tired of having to resize the pop-ups each and every flight.  

I would try and learn how to edit the panel.cfg for my own use, but don’t know if that is discouraged?

You can change the settings in panel.cfg yourself. You have to change the entry for "window_size" and replace the "position" setting with "window_pos".

Example for the relevant lines of [Window08] -> the left inboard display unit: (I'm using a monitor with 3840 x 1600 pixels.)

//window_size = 0.28906, 0.46250
//position=4
window_size = 0.18229, 0.4375
window_pos = 0.05208, 0.53125

First value 0.05208 means your x position is at 5,208 % of the availibe x pixels (in my case 3840) and is therefore here at pixel 200 (round about). Same for Y with 1600 pixels.

You can make some screenshots with original cfg and figure out the right values then. I did that with Photoshop. Take the target pixel (example 200) and divide it by 3840 for x values or divide it by 1600 for y values. Same for width and height for window_size (but here it is the lenght not the position).

Hope that helps

Just got my new rig set up with 3 monitors and am anxious to see what the flight deck looks like in 7680 x 1440...
