glcm1961 Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago 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!

LeCuvier Posted 5 hours ago Posted 5 hours ago (edited) 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.
