I'm aslo in favor of keeping and upgrading the 2d panel system. It would be nice to have a 2d line drawing layer also.
I made my own attempt to convert the text layer to an osgText layer , but tracing backwards it seems the txf fonts are cached , and used by the PLIB dialog / menu system , so not as easy as it fisrt appeared.Ive been trying to come up with ways to improve the glass cockpits ,
text being te biggest problem with the lack of control over spacing/scaling (it uses panel dimensions for that apparently).
The only other reusable solution I could think of was a texture with compass (and waypoints/path/navaids,etc),similar to the radars , that could also be used in a 2d panel as a texture layer...
Im still holidaying for another week , 1200 kms from home , so I'll have some catching up too.
Happy New Year
