CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT THE 4 SETS OF NUMBERS MEAN AT THE END OF A LINE IN THE PANEL.CFG FILE. I KNOW IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH SIZE AND POSITION BUT WHICH IS WHICH?
Eg: gauge17=Cessna!Avionics Switch, 245,688,37,40

The first 2 numbers are the position of the gauge from the left and top edges of the panel. The other 2 numbers are the horizontal and vertical size of the gauge.

If you are looking to modify or change a panel, a REALLY good idea would be to go find CfgEdit, a freeware program for modifying and creating panels. Once you know how to use it, its a great program. I think you can find it in the FS utilities section on this site.
