Adding and removing the FSMap

instrument to/from a panel

To add a hotspot for FSMap to a panel, ﬁrst select the aircraft and

paintjob from the aircraft tree in the entry bar. Click on the panel view

where you want the hotspot to be added, then click on the appropriate

icon in the icon bar. FSMap will ask you to if you want to install the

instrument in a separate panel window. If you choose “yes”, the

FSMap instrument will be added in a new panel window.

If you answer “No”, the FSMap instrument will be placed on the

panel view you selected earlier. Grip handles will appear on each side,

allowing you to resize the instrument, or move it around on the panel

window. Place the instrument at the appropriate place, and ensure

that no other gauges are covered.

You may also use the keyboard instead of the mouse: The hotspot can

be moved using the arrow keys, SHIFT-arrows will change the hotspot’s

size. When keeping the CTRL-Key depressed, all keyboard actions will

happen accelerated. The currently selected hotspot may be deleted by

pressing the DELETE key. There is an appropriate icon in the icon bar

available as well.
