October 9, 20214 yr Anyone know if it is possible to bring up these instruments with a keyboard shortcut? It would be mighty handy for my 2nd programmable keyboard. Many thanks in advance.

When you create a button assignment in AAO you will find a group called "Desktop FIPs" in the Event treelist. It has Minimize, Maximize and Toggle. LORBY-SI
October 10, 20214 yr Hi, I just discovered this events 🙂 Thanks Works great with a small issue - a very small part of the gauges still appears in the lower/bottom side of the main screen (same size as the auto-hide task bar) For your information, I have two screens, of different size. - the gauges are displayed on the 1920*1080, while the sim is on main screen 2560*1480. I succeeded to move them outside the screen area.... but must be done for each gauge... Always asking for more 😉 is there a way to select the layout to use (maybe depending of aircraft...) Gérard Edit : moving the gauge when minimized breaks the "restore" when I use the toggle (I had to use the "reset " button on the gauge list sreen) Edited October 10, 20214 yr by gaab

Only "fix" would be to show all gauges as app windows in the task bar (=a long list of extra icons next to the AAO symbol). I can do that if you want, but I'm not sure if this may cause other issues further down the road. 2 hours ago, gaab said: is there a way to select the layout to use (maybe depending of aircraft...) There is a button on the DesktopFIP handler window named "Layouts"... Whenever you load a layout, it is automatically associated with your current aircraft. So when you load the plane, this layout is applied to the gauges. Edited October 10, 20214 yr by Lorby_SI LORBY-SI
October 10, 20214 yr Hi, Thanks for your feedback and clear explanations. I can live easily with this WPF behavior. And thanks to clarify how are linked layout and aircraft. That is exactly what I was hoping to get. Gérard
