You need to amend panel.cxx to remove the test in fgPanelVisible for
the current view being the cockpit view:-
bool
fgPanelVisible ()
{
const FGPanel* current = globals->get_current_panel();
if (current == 0)
return false;
if (current->getVisibility() == 0)
return false;
// if (globals->get_viewmgr()->get_current() != 0)
// return false;
if (current->getAutohide() &&
globals->get_current_view()->getHeadingOffset_deg() *
SGD_DEGREES_TO_RADIANS != 0)
return false;
return true;
}
Note that the line below the commented test has been line-wrapped in
this posting and should be a single line.
