Tryng to add MAP Icon to some older A/C- No luck

[Guest tango papa]

I've added other gauges to the panel, which worked without much effort, just a bit tricky getting the correct coordinates. My attempt to add the map feature has me stumped. I've put SimIcon!Map Icon in the gauge listing, but nothing seems to happen, no icon shows on the panel. Do I need to include the SimIcon.cab in the panel? Or do I need to add a Window section? Stumped on this end.Part of the secret of success in life is to eat what you like -M.Twain

Do you have a SimIcon.cab file in the main Gauges folder? Are you sure it's spelled that way?Hope this helps,--Tom GibsonCal Classic Propliner Page: http://www.calclassic.comFreeflight Design Shop: http://www.freeflightdesign.comDrop by! ___x_x_(")_x_x___

Yes, SimIcon.cab is in FS9 gauge folder, and I have looked at other A/C with MAP, and its SimIcon!Map Icon, XY, xy.Part of the secret of success in life is to eat what you like -M.Twain

Hi,The Map Icon does not require a window declaration. Are you positive you're putting the icon in an unused piece of background bitmap real estate and that it's not being overlaid?HTH,--Larry
