For 2D panels, something like this is already possible with the Lua oapi.set_panelblink function. For a demo on how this works see the Tutorials|ADI training scenario. Is this what you had in mind? It should be possible to extend this to virtual cockpits as well.

Oh, never knew that one yet. :) Will take a look for it.

Yes, a general solution would be fine, could be really helpful, especially for the more complex add-ons.
 
I modified some files, of which the dedicated pages to the standard PDF, that were partially illegible previously and non-navigables.

A file text: "Note parser.txt" in Html/Scenarios/Default describes the code of the parser.

The size of the window is evidently too small currently ( i work actually with 800/600 ).

For details, see post #57, page 4.
