Fsbuild-2 Flight Planner

I've loaded the retrofit for the default B734. Two things: there is no LNAV button; the FMS etc pop-ups are huge and of very low resolution.

Can I just add in an LNAV button?
I don't want to have to resize gauges every time so how best to make them proportional with other gauges? I've not had this problem before using popups for the F-70.

I guess I've missed something obvious, as usual.

Thanks for getting back. Much appreciated. The xml stuff left me dazed. I've done a little xml coding successfully for scenery and AI flightplans but your stuff is too much for me.

I added the LNAV button and tweaked the coordinates and size. I got them where I wanted them. I still have some elementary problems though. Although the TCAS gauge is written in the code it doesn't show in Map on the EFIS. I think I have the wrong EFIS - there is no TCAS button on mine.

This is the panel but it's very cluttered with redundant default instruments - horrible stuff! The only good thing about it is that it flies quite well on instruments.



The second is the size and shape of the EFIS and MCU - these are huge. When I click and drag the EFIS it acquires a large black square around it which makes it difficult to position and resize. Once I release the mouse the black square goes away. The panel.cfg is below.
