Re: Air Manager 3.5

I think the circuit breaker panel you were talking about was just part of the background image in nonfunctional . Be sure that the layout is selected for the background type on the panel settings after you have created a new panel from the Layout. When I was working on them I noticed that sometimes ...

Re: Air Manager 3.5

Looks like you don’t have the background mage behind the instruments. Look at the panel settings and be sure you have the background color set to transparent and have Layout selected on the radio buttons

Re: An Air Manager syntax Highliter for Notepad++

I find the new editor great for making small fixes and changes during instrument testing but notepad++ and your Highliter are still best for complex scripting. The search, replace, global selection highlighting, function/conditional brackets, and on and on. As the internal script editor evolves it m...

Re: Fixing Airspeed between Miles and Knots

One way to have editable custom instruments is with Air Player running on a Windows tablet. I haven’t tried it lately but a while back when 3.0 shipped it was possible to get decent frame rates and I have to believe the tablets have progressed in performance since then.

Re: Air Manager Adjustable Airspeed?

I have also made some improvements on my user adjustable idea but certainly not quite the Swiss Army knife version that Tony has offered. My goal is to create a series of generics for the various instrument types that allows modest alteration ( color arcs, scale range, graduations, start and end ang...

Re: One knobster per touchscreen, or one knobster for all touchscreens

You can definitely open multiple panels on multiple monitors and as long as Knobster is connected to the current mouser running those panels they should work.

Re: Skinman Tutorial in 3 parts

Thanks Guys. I have been sidelined a bit for the last three months due to the need to care for my elderly mother. She had a fall in November and broke a vertebrae but is getting back on her feet now. I finally have time for my favorite hobby again!

Re: Twin Otter Altitude Alerter
