Getting rid of a GPS Surround Panel in FS
I have a problem that is rather tricky to resolve and wondered if anybody might be able to "shed some light on"?
I want to enlarge the MS GPS visual window and can easily do but also I only want to see only the GPS visual window itself and not the buttons and the surround frame.
The information to manipulate can be found in the Panel.cfg file and usually in Window 02 e.g.:
[Window02]
size_mm=456,378
window_size=0.5
position=8
BACKGROUND_COLOR=0,0,0
VISIBLE=0
ident=GPS_PANEL
gauge00=fs9gps!gps_500, 0,0
My modification as an example gauge00=gps!gps,0,0,350,450
I can get rid of the frame on the bottom and on the right hand side by reducing 350,450 to a smaller value but
I cannot introduce negative numbers for the index 0,0 e.g. -20,-30 to remove the surround frame on the left and upper side!
I have no problem with the Reality GARMIN 530 and negative indices but cannot hack into the MS GPS to see how to do it!!
I am using a 7.2 inch flat panel LCD display with manual buttons and rotary encoders that give me a real panel instrument that I have designed and have a need to use the Microsoft series of GPSs in a specific simulator rather than Reality (which of course are really excellent) if possible!

Bill.
