Can I change position of the control indicator?

[foobolt]

Hi all.

Now,I have encountered the problem which cannot display control indicator.

 

With the reason to say ,can I change position of the indicator?

Because, in my usual setup (main:6monitor + MFD:1monitor), a blank is made at the lower left and the lower right of a screen. Probably control indicator will be hidden there.

Oh,it is very good news! I wait for you!

 

(I also encountered the problem in 1.2.2, activation and FFB....and the FFB issue has not been solved yet. )

hello, had a bit of sleep.

 

I remember it as being much easier than it is now. Perhaps there have been changes after 1.2.1 or .2.

 

I found I can move the indicator with lines #44 and #45 of the ControlsIndicator_page.lua file, but I also get a graphics anamoly when I do so.

 

I hope someone else will chime in with a fix.

Good morning & thanks JG14_Smil,my purpose was achieved by your advice!

 

I changed these two lines...

[lines#12] local size = 0.05

[lines#44] base.init_pos = {1,-(0.1 - 1.5*size)}

It is good exactly:)

 

(While wishing to solve FFB problems immediately....)

That's great news. Nice job.

 

You can make the background mesh more transparent by editing line 33:

 

 

local orange_mat = MakeMaterial("",{255,100,0,5})

 

I changed '50' to '5'

Indeed,it is smarter for it not to be conspicuous.

Thanks for the additional information :thumbup:
