March 8, 200620 yr Hi, has an application ever been written to check the positions of click areas on an XML gauge? With large, complex gauges, it's not easy to see the positions and sizes (and possible overlaps) readily. I know you can labouriously plot them onto the bitmap, but it would be dead handy to load the XML file into an application which then gives a graphical output.cheers,nick

March 8, 200620 yr Do you mean a way to "highlight" click areas on a gauge with FS running? I guess a guage with a test status like that would be easy to code; just a bunch of elements with a conditional tag, and a to test the displacement of the mouse cursor over the click area...Or maybe you meant otherwise and I just wrote nonsense :-)Tom
March 8, 200620 yr Author Moderator I believe Nick was asking for a stand-alone WYSIWYG application that would provide an IDE for XML coding & integrity verification... which won't be available until sometime in the fourth quarter of 2006. ;) Fr.
