I use Rob's Groundhandling extensively, but can anyone explain how I re-size the groundhandling guage to half the original size???

Or, has anyone already done that???
Thanks.

If that gauge is in it's own window you should be able to...

right-click on it

left-click on "undock window"

grab a corner with your mouse and resize it to what you want

right-click on it

left-click on "undock window"

A more permanent solution would require a panel.cfg edit.

This is from a plane I have with that gauge...

Quote:
[Window11]
Background_color=16,16,16
size_mm=239,65
window_size_ratio=1.000 
position=0
visible=0
ident=330
window_size= 0.300, 0.110

window_pos= 0.240, 0.790


The highlighted text sets the size of the window as a percentage of the size of the panel.

Changing that line to window_size= 0.150,0.055  //0.300, 0.110

re-sizes that window. Note: FS will ignore everything on that line after "//" so you can retain the original setting for future reference.

If you have further questions or your panel.cfg is set up different than this, post back with what it looks like.

cheers,
Joe

Hey, Joe!

Thanks, so much.  I searched thru panel tuts and never did understand that SIMPLE SOLUTION.
I use GH on all my planes w/ visibility=1 and a location placing it on a background where no other guages are.  I like the convenience of it plus the auto Flaps up, spoiler disengaged on landing.

Really appreciate your clear answer.
Good day to you.
