panel id toggle not toggling

[tiburon]

Hi,

 

I don't know if this can be done : I'm trying to toggle the 2D right CDU in my PMDG 737NGX by assigning a button to Panel id toggle or panel toggle (what's the difference?)

It opens all right but doesn't close again so no toggle.This panel has no keyboard shortcut like the other panels but can be toggled from the "view" menu in FSX.

Is there a way to do this ?

 

regards

I think the ID toggle uses the panel ID number which you'll find somewhere in the panel.cfg file in the Panel subfolder.  For the right CDU it looks like

 

ident=420

 

That is, at least, what it says for "CDU (Right)" in my old outdated NGX install.

 

The other panel toggle uses the menu sequence number as in the Views menu.

Thanks Pete,

 

Yes, I've used ident 420 as parameter but it only opens and doesn't close when I press the button again.

Never mind though, I've found a way to do it using a mouse macro.
