Resize, and / or reposition GPS window?

Post by TBryson2 »

I have a 3 monitor setup and clicking on the GPS to open in a new window renders it an unusable size. I do not want to do this each and every time I fly, so I would like to resize it permanently for each of my aircraft, and in one case, also reposition it on the screen. What file (i.e. panel.cfg) is it in and which "window(s)" are they so I can resize them?

(I know the basic concept, just not where to edit it).

Thanks!

Hi.
You might like to look at this as a guide to editing.

Just make a backup copy of original panel.cfg before you edit , that way if you screw up , you can put it back in original state.

Thanks and good info, but I was looking for specifically WHERE and WHICH .cfg (in the A2A) file the GPS was.

UPDATE: Found it in the panel.cfg file. Managed to resize the GPS so it isn't so stretched out and flat.

Thanks!
