Dear FsxGenius, Your wing view is simply great, can you please let me know how you create the bump window file. I was trying to create window view with another Airbus window image, but not able to manage the transperency in Photoshop.

Please share your expertise

Regards

It is ALT+SHIFT+3 not shift+3. Try LOOKING as it says ALTERNATE

Your instructions are not complete.

1. How do you name the "Window Titles?" 2. It sure would make it easier if you added a copy of a panel.cfg file as an example.

I have a problem when I try to use it. The combination of shift+# (shift+3) key, opens GPS. Please be more specific about how to use this.

sacraytonTue, 19 Mar 2013 19:21:26 GMT

This is exactly what I have been attempting to do. I cannot get it to work though. The Alt+Shift+#key do not do anything. I am trying to configure the PMDG 737NGX. Please help.

Stephen
