FS Var Values in XML custom tooltips.

Recommended Posts

Guest ptwaugh

Hi,I'm creating a more realistic Bell 206 Engine Transmission Oil Gauge, and have run into two problems.First, after looking through the SDK, and sd2gau17.zip, as well as the .dlls, I can't find the variable. It must exist in .c at least, as MS uses it for it's gauge. Anyone know the correct variable? I have found HELPID_BELL_XMISSION_PSI.Also, I'd like a custom tooltip that says, "Transmission Oil Pressure", and have tried this after doing a search and reading some posts and checking out existing MS gauges:

<Mouse> <Area Right="125">  <Help ID="HELPID_BELL_XMISSION_PSI"/>  <Tooltip><HELPID_BELL_XMISSION_PSI>(%((A:ENG1 TRANSMISSION PRESSURE, psi))%!d!

Instead of the tag, how about desired name ?Does that work for you?

Yeah, the above code is wrong in that way... it's late... but what i'm looking for is the way to use an A var in the statement.
