→Towards an Aircraft-agnostic MFD Framework

[[File:Canvas-mfd-framework-prototyping.png|thumb|This is an adapted version of the [[Garmin GPSMap 196]] that is currently being developed by F-JJTH. Here, the whole instrument is entirely set up in XML space, including buttons/event handling, but also the embedded canvas region that serves as the 'screen'. The idea is to allow arbitrary MFDs to be specified in an aircraft-agnostic fashion, including displays like a PFD, [[NavDisplay]] or EFB. For details, please see [[Canvas Glass Cockpit Efforts]].]] | [[File:Canvas-mfd-framework-prototyping.png|thumb|This is an adapted version of the [[Garmin GPSMap 196]] that is currently being developed by F-JJTH.

[[File:Canvas-mfd-framework-prototyping-with-mapstructure.png|400px|thumb|This demonstrates how a purely XML-based MFD framework can instantiate dynamic [[MapStructure]] layers - none of this involves any [[Nasal]] coding now, it's just an XML file - to learn more, see [[Canvas Glass Cockpit Efforts]].]] | |||
