The problem is that PIC uses it's own variables for autopilot parameters so I don't have an access to the MCP's selected altitude variable. I thought that the latest patch would have added this kind of support. I however heard that I would need somekind of a special DLL to get access to these special varibales which I naturally don't have. I sent a message to PIC support forum about this but didn't get any replys.
I'm afraid that, unless you want to hack into their code then that is the only way you'll get what you want. I thought that was the whole point of the 1.3 update, to provide program access to their panel programming. But they don't talk to me, and I've never seen anything helpful from them I'm afraid.
Is there a way to get it via FSUIPCSorry, no. FSUIPC knows nothing about any of the third party panels stuff. The only one which has supplied adequate documentation for me to add controls for is Project Magenta.

Could you give me a little hint of how would the hacking be done? What programs would I need? I tried to attach FS to VC++'s debugger and even managed to find the memory area for the particular gauge. But I'm not sure if that helps me at all. Does the same DLL (gauges are in fact DLL's) always have the same memory area in use? If not how could I make the gauge always find the right memory address to be used? Anyway the memory area of the gauge is pretty large so I would have to scan through it somehow to find the right memory address which is used to store the MCP's altitude value.
I don't know very much about the way memory for DLLs is handled so I hope that someone wiser on this subject could help me out a little.
