I was wondering if you might know where to find,and how to adjust the size,of things like the PMDG CDU pop up window or the Flight 1 GTN 750 pop up window I use in A2A C172 aircraft.

The reason I ask is I mainly fly VR now and use FlyInside..

I'm sorry, Joe, but I don't own (or use) any of those addons and hence have no clue if this is possible in any way. Maybe someone else will chime in!

I was playing around with the A2A 172 this morning and I think I found it....

I was experimenting with the "quick radios" option and able to re-position it to the bottom middle of my screen like my ATC now.

Go to panel.cfg in \Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3\SimObjects\Airplanes\A2A_C172\panel

The window entries are at the top.  This is a sample...

[Window05]
Background_color=0,0,0 
size_mm=187,392
//pixel_size=187,392
//position=6
//window_pos= 0.025, 0.9
window_size             = 0.20, 0.35
window_pos              = 7.0, 0.1
visible=1
ident=50
sizable=0

Thanks so much!

I'll give this a try today and hopefully I can find a similar window for the PMDG aircraft to resize the CDU popup window.

I also used "alpha_blend=0.80" for some of the windows. PM me if you want a copy of my modified .cfg. 

Excellent tip.  I was totally unaware of the file - missionpanels.cfg
