Does anyone have a simple Helios profile for BMS?
-
Hello Folks,
I’m trying to build a minimal Helios profile, with just a few guages and no switching? I don’t have any touch screens and just want the use of the guages along with the RTT for my MFD’s.
I downloaded Ices’ which is so massive, it’s unusable for me to pull a couple guages from. I need a small profile, to get the guages copied.OR
a tutorial that shows how to make a profile from scratch For the F-16 Only.
I have my guages placed, but they don’t work.

I have a few Helios Tutorials on my YouTube channel.
You are aware that you could just copy parts of a profile ie a specific gauge to another profile.
The video shoe how to copy /duplicate within the same profile. But the principle applies to copy past between 2 profiles. Just have 2 Prolile Editors open in order to copy from one to anotherGesendet von meinem SM-G930F mit Tapatalk

Ok, so I installed Helios, copied a few guages from Ice’s profile to replace the bad ones in MFDE and they work fine. The only problem I ran in to was some of the guages have a bezel or border around them and can’t be resized. Otherwise, success.

It should be possible to resize them all, the bezels/borders are normally hidden behind the front panel image which has circular cut outs for them.

That what I thought, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to separate the bezel from the guage.

Can you tell which gauge you have troubles with the bezel. As most of the gauges are on a panel that can be copied witout having a bezel

In previous versions they all used to have a square bezel which was hidden by the front panel image.
However the latest versions don’t have the square bezel and all the dial images are circular as shown in the previous post by oakdesign. They all just have a thin circular border which is part of the dial image. They’re all on panels just for convenience to group the dial and needle(s) together but there isn’t an image mask on the panels to hide any of the dial.
The border is only 5 pixels wide but if you really want to remove it then you would either have to create an image mask or edit the image.
