Thanks Ernie,
So, with my limited understanding of this sort of thing, I create a text document and place it in the panel folder for the aircraft I want to have this function in. Good so far?
Here is what I made based on what you had above, where
ESDG_CitationX!PFD_2D_PILOT is the specific gauge in the 2D panel I want to pop up (I'm not sure if it's a XML guage or not).
<ESDG_CitationX!PFD_2D_PILOT="MyPopup" Version="1.0">
<Image Name="Mypopup.bmp" ImageSizes="24,113,20,15"/>
<Mouse>
<Cursor Type="Hand"/>
<Click>300 (>K:PANEL_ID_TOGGLE) </Click>
</Mouse>
</Gauge>
Also, I'm not sure about the dimensions you've got in your example. I'm thinking 24,113,20,15 pertain to the new window but I'm not sure.
1. Do I need to create a seperate bmp for the gauge? My guess is no since I am already able to have a larger version of the gauge show up by creating a new window (see example below).
[Window08]
Background_color=0,0,0
size_mm=300, 560
window_size_ratio=1.000
position=4
visible=0
ident=4012
window_size= 0.300, 0.560
window_pos= 150.000, 50.000
gauge00=ESDG_CitationX!PFD_2D_PILOT, 0, 0, 300, 560
So this works well enough, I just have to get the sim to recognize a mouse click to open the gauge to the bigger window.
Thanks for your help with this.
