AMPCD not showing up on center MFD

[glcm1961]

I've got 3 MFDs along with my main monitor.   My Lua file is as follows:

 

_  = function(p) return p; end;
name = _('3 mfds');

Viewports = 
{
Center = 
{
x = 0;
y = 0;
width = 5120;
height = 2160;
viewDx = 0;
viewDy = 0;
aspect = 5120/2160;
}
}
    
LEFT_MFCD = 
{
x = 5195;
y = 0;
width = 640;
height = 600;
}
        
    
RIGHT_MFCD =
{
x = 6000;
y = 0;
width = 640;
height = 600;
}

CENTER_MFCD =
{
X = 6805;
Y = 0;
width = 640;
height = 600;
}

TEDAC =
{
x = 6805;
y = 0;
width = 640;
height = 600;
}
 

 

When I'm flying the Apache the TEDAC shows up on the center MFD with no problem, but when I hop into the F-18, the center MFD is blank and the AMPCD shows up in the upper left hand corner of my main monitor.    Do I have to edit a file in the F-18 in order to export it to the MFD?   I was under the impression it would automatically detect the center MFD and that would be that.   At any rate, would appreciate any guidance.   Thanks!

Only thing i can see is that you have have your CENTER_MFCD x and y in capitals not lower case?

I suspect that the issue is caused by having the same coordinates and sizes for CENTER_MFCD and TEDAC. You should probably use separate files for Hornet and Apache resp. That's what I do anyway.

The other thing I noticed is, you don't seem to have a line like "UIMainView = Viewports.Center". When I omit that line, the UI main view extends over all monitors. However, it does not affect display of the AMPCD.

Yep, you nailed it.    I probably never would have noticed that if you hadn't brought it to my attention.   I owe you one!
