GFDisplay: Literal Values only?

[Skittles]

The documentation states (at least how I understand it) is that I can only provide literal values. I don't know if this was supposed to work, but it does.

I am once again tinkering with GFdisplay trying to get it to do all sorts of weird things it was not designed to do. This project has three LEDs lighting up according to Flaps position. (The Cessna only has three extensions so that's why I'm going with three)

[GFT8.0]
;X0BE0 = Left Flaps Inicator
;X3BFA = Flaps Detent Increment

L7=X0BE0 U16 >X3BFA 
L6=X0BE0 U16 >X3BFA *2
L5=X0BE0 U16 >X3BFA *3

So at the first position, L7 lights up. Second position, both L7 & L6 light up. Third position, all three light up.

Blimey! That's certainly a 'bonus'. I wouldn't have expected it to workHmmm. I wonder how it does? I think I'll delve into the code next week, to see how it's being cleverer than me! :wink:
