No touch screen.. - Wingrider - 08-12-2023

Quick question.  I'm sure someone has the answer.  Have a 3 monitor setup. I have TDS GTN 750 on a touch screen.. Works perfectly when using stand alone
When popping out of built-in touch screen doesn't work.. If I disable in panel config, I can use stand alone, works fine.

Hello,

Handling pop-ups from within MSFS is a game engine limitation, unfortunately this is not something that we can control and the request for touchscreen support for pop-ups should be addressed at the MSFS support forums.

The TDS GTNXi can function as a standalone, but you do not need to remove/disable the panel.cfg file setting, otherwise there will be core function issues.
You can force the TDS GTNXi into "standalone" mode, the VC screen will be black, but the core autopilot/HSi will work. Please refer to v1.0.2.6 changelog on how to achieve this:

WIP Feature - Ability to display Standalone mode when using VC Integrated aircraft (currently the VC integrated gauge will be black and this is a working in progress feature). This feature allows for running external hardware (RSG and others to be able to fully enjoy the autopilot and draw the GTN750Xi and GTN650Xi to a secondary monitor.
Requires creating a dummy text file called "Standalone.txt" in the installation path: "C:\ProgramData\TDS\GTNXi"
We plan on further expanding this feature and creating a more user friendly interface in future versions, but we have released this feature now so customers can enjoy this functionality
