Hi,

I am hoping someone could help me out resizing the Aerosoft Airbus FMC window to fit my Opencockpits FMC v3.

With Roars help I have got the buttons working but I can't work out how to get the window to fit. At present, this is what I have:



If anyone knows how to get the window the correct size, I would be extremely grateful for your help.

Many thanks,

Mick

After much trial and error I have managed to sort things out, so I now have a fully working Airbus FMC.

Roar, can't thank you enough for this driver.



Regards,

Mick

Fine if you could share the way to get the FMC dsiplay correct.

Hi,

This is what I did to make it work for me.

I changed the entry for window01 in the Airbus panel.cfg files to this:

[Window01]
file=../../Aerosoft Airbus A320_A321 Base/Panel_Fallback/Panel_2d.bmp
file_1024_night=../../Aerosoft Airbus A320_A321 Base/Panel_Fallback/Panel_2d.bmp
Background_color=0,0,0
size_mm=600,800
window_size_ratio=0.250
position=0
visible=0
ident=10021
window_size= 0.116, 0.750
sizeable=1

gauge00=../SimObjects/Airplanes/Aerosoft Airbus A320_A321 Base/Panel_Fallback/DLLs/FMGS!FMGS1, 0,0,600,800, 2

You can delete all the other gauge entries for window01 as they are no longer needed.

This gives you just the FMC screen when you press Shift+2. It's just then a case of undocking the window and dragging it across to the Opencocpits FMC and selecting fullscreen...voila!

I am running a 3 monitor setup at a resolution of 5860 x 1080 using Nvidia surround. If you have a single monitor you may need to play around with the size_mm and/or window_size to get it right, although the window can be resized by dragging. Once you have it how you like it duplicate your size_mm numbers at the end of the gauge00= line, but make sure you don't get rid of the number 2. I don't know what it does, but I do know that the FMC buttons won't work if it's not there.

Hope this helps. I struggled to find any info on the internet and spent several days sorting this out. I hope this will stop others suffering the same torment.

Regards,

Mick
