Is there anyway to export just the gauges use in panel and not the whole gauge folder were you are using say just 2 gauges from a large file ???

This makes for one large panel file when you which to share a panel.

I have Latest version of software.

I did this when using this software when it was free for CFS 2

You should only transfer the panel.cfg files to be on the safe side.  if you are using copyrighted gauges, transfer of such files is a crime and a punishable offence.

If you're trying to copy 2 gauges, you should just use Windows Explorer to move your 2 files to the new destination. Just look for the gaugename followed by .gau or .cab, depending on the type of gauge.

No I mean for example a T6 texan panel I exported came in at 32MB way to large to share and it is impossible to find which gauges are use from each gauge package of large gauge files.

This program use to separate gauges use from each file and export them only I believe I may be wrong ,

If not it should.

If you mean that there is one large .gau file, but from within that file you are only using say 2 or 3 of the gauges, then no, there is no way to just export those 2 or 3 gauges. You must include the entire .gau file.

That can and will be a problem with shareing panels.

How do you think the site would like it if I send them a 32MB panel file. LOL

In principal there should not be a problem sharing panels as all that needs to be shared is the panel.cfg file and a reference to the planes containing the gauges.

Bear in mind than you are not permitted to "share" gauges from payware products (such as the AlphaSim T-6 Texan) and it would be easier to reference freeware gauges by noting the planes you originally obtained them from. This makes for small downloads.

This is the panel with a lot of different gauges i modifid to get the look I wanted.

This sounds like a lot of trouble for me to go through just to share this panel.

Ever 2nd post warns me about copyright laws, so I most likely will just keep it for myself.
