Hello.  I'm looking for some new panels and would be grateful if you could help.  The only requirement is that all, or most of the controls should have tool tips identifying them.  The reason for this is that the panels for the following aircraft are unusable to me as I have difficulty seeing the controls due to being partially sighted.

PMDG 747
Level-D 767
PSS 777

Thanks a lot.

Hussein.

sounds like you haven't installed the guage files properly. Those are all payware aircrafts so it sounds like you have reason to contact the vendors and request an explanation from them.

As far as panels go they have some awesome panels in the SimV panel section or you can check out AVSIM. I recently discovered this nice looking 747-400 panel on FSfields.com and it works just fine.
 

Its only in your mind, strong mind, strong soul and nobody can take that from you!

Hmm, could be the gages, but then for commercial aircraft with auto-installers I'm surprised.  Anyway, PMDG for sure did say their panels did NOT have tooltips, but oh well.  Could you perhaps post that link to the panel you mentioned please, so I could find it easier?

Thanks much!

Hussein.

WHY!!!!!!

I understand that you cant read the gauges, but you payed $25 for those panels, why would you want to replace them with free ones. My suggestion is read the manuals and memorize the layouts.

Cheers
