This section should be considered outdated, Tom has been working on GUI support recently and made tons of progress, things will be documented some time during (or after) the 3.0 release probably. There's a dedicated article at [[Canvas Widgets]].

The MFD module will provide a wrapper on top of the canvas system specifically designed for building MFD-type displays (PFD, ND, EICAS etc). The MFD module will be largely based on the hard coded displays currently available in FlightGear, in particular the NavDisplay: [[Navigation display]]. What about CDUs, shall these be also covered by this module, or separately?
