Here's a snippet of code to convert the inhg property value to mbar and then use this to rotate the left-most digit on the mbar display. The code doesn't seem to work; Is this the correct usage of the <scale> tag? I can't find an example of its use for a 3D cockpit.

Sounds indeed very reasonable and less complicated if the conversion is the only thing he needs to be done. ------- Boris _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
