help request- monitor export

[0utLAW]

Hey guys(more specifically peterp), here we go again. I've installed a fresh copy of DCS World and A-10C and I'm using the [How To] Export ALL Indicators like MFCD via ViewPorts http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=70716 post to configure my indicators. I have the left and right MFCDs showing correctly but none of the other indicators are moving to my second monitor. I know I'm missing one simple step that I always overlook. Here are the details of my new setup.

 

Physical Monitor Setup

Primary(Center/Main) Monitor- Acer GD235HZ 1920x1080 120hz

Secondary Monitor- Hanspree HT231DPB Touchscreen 1920x1080 60hz

 

Windows Monitor Configuration

 

I have attached copies of my Monitor Setup lua and Digital Clock Indicator lua as some examples. Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Export example.lua

DIGIT_CLK_init.lua

My DCS Options are set as follows;

 

Resolution= 3840x1080

Aspect Ratio= 3.5555555556

Monitors= Export example

 

Fullscreen is unchecked

Does anyone know if this works with the latest version of DCS World 1.2.10.30996?

 

I have also opened my DIGIT_CLK_init.lua file and pasted the following below the indicator_type = indicator_types.COMMON line.

 

I changed the line to match the name of the indicator vp = env.DIGIT_CLK

screenspace_scale = screenspace_scale_initial + zoom_value;

if screenspace_scale < 1 then

screenspace_scale = 1

end

local screen_height = 2.0;

local screen_width = screen_height * LockOn_Options.screen.aspect;

local scaled_width = SelfWidth * screenspace_scale

local scaled_height = y_size * scaled_width -- for indicator all sizes is function of width

-0.5 * screen_height + 0.5 * scaled_height}

0.5 * screen_height - 0.5 * scaled_height}

 

end

local env = {}

env.screen = LockOn_Options.screen

local f = loadfile(multimonitor_setup_name)

if f then

setfenv(f,env)

pcall(f)

 

local vp = nil

vp = env.DIGIT_CLK

 

if vp ~= nil then

dbg_print("ok we have directly assigned viewport to CDU\n")

set_full_viewport_coverage(vp)

end

end

Thank you guys for not responding to my post. It forced me to take 5 minutes to search for my own darn posts and I found the answer to my problem;
