same thing for other panels like G1000 and so on.

PLEASE PLEASE DON'T REMOVE THEM!!!!
Would it not be better to have some individual button panels for control rather than the whole bezel with a blank middle. It seems a waste of tablet screen real estate,
VERY IMPORTANT IS those CONTROL BUTTONS will be available to control sim cockpit device. It's most important to be able to control instruments without using mouse in 3D cockpit

Is there anyone who can answer this question?
Why some instruments have working display (for example PFD of MFD for 737) and other not working display? which are the differences?
I don't understand... :?: :?:
In my mind they are equivalent.

Perhaps they are for a different sim. If you can be specific about which exact instruments it may become clearer.

The initial purpose of the panel without instrument (Overlay) is to use default 2D popup instruments we found in x-plane or other sims
and for this we have to run the Overlay instrument on the same rig as the sim itself otherwise it could not work (x-plane 2D popup not displayed on iPad nor on Android)

the 737 PFD and ND are a different story, their author have reproduce the whole instrument we found in the sim in 3D cockpit so autonomous and available remotely on any capable device

Think I was getting confused with another thread as I thought that had already been explained. Gilles is correct the bezel only instruments were only designed for the desktop version’s to lay over the top of an Xplane pop out running on the same machine.

On Android, iOS and the Raspberry Pi it will show as in the image below. I am not sure if this is the correct message. If someone has a suggestion, please feel free :)

I've tried yesterday with Skyhawk G1000 on x-plane and the Overlay on Android and it was working fine
i guess Ralph has only added this recent message
