FG1000 ready for integration into aircraft

[Hooray]

to resize the GUI window of the FG1000 display (dialog):

- move your mouse over the border of the instrument
- click the left mouse button
- move your mouse as needed
- release the mouse button

That didn't work all it did was moved the netirething, then it froze so I now can't close it.

[Hooray]

Stuart just mentioned elsehwere that the corresponding change may not yet have been released - since I am not using an official release, I didn't realize that this was the issue.
However, the corresponding changes should be safe to back-port manually, if that's what you'd like to do.

[Robertfm]

As I have no idea what back-porting is I'll wait for the official release.

[Hooray]

copy&paste the changes by looking at what's changed in the source tree and applying those changes to your local tree.

As I said I will wait for official release thanks.

Hi Robert,

You can also try using FGQCanvas (http://wiki.flightgear.org/FGQCanvas). That currently doesn'y display the maps properly, but does work for the PFD quite nicely. It also has the advantage of being displayed in a completely different window.

I found this on the page:
Launch FlightGear with --httpd=8080.
Launch FGQCanvas.
Follow the on-screen instructions.

8080 is already in settings for Phi which I use.
How do I launch FGQCanvas. Surely you can't have two features in 8080 at one time.

[stuart]

Hopefully, you should have FGQCanvas in the "bin" directory of your FlightGear installation.

Thanks to the magic of FlightGear you can both run Phi and have FGQCanvas use the same 8080 port .

No FGQCanvas in Bin. Sorry
