ssd (skid/slip indicator) is the lower rectangular part under the red triangle. Can I have a variable that can offset it to left/right by a number of pixels/percent (whichever is more convenient for you)

@AndKe Please indicate me the typical min/max values for this indicator and the respective min max positions. I will create a function to set this value and properly place the indicator.

I am not actually sure yet which telemetry I would use to feed it :) - the Y axis acceleration, or the side-slip data (also affected by wind) - so I do not know the range yet.

The data is just relative, never exactly quantified for the pilot.

you can make it go from -100 to +100 or any symmetrical range you choose. maybe pixels or percent is easiest for you. I will most likely need to scale the data anyway in the other thread.

The current state would be "zero" (triangle and rectangle placed as they are today)

Visually: please make it so that -100(or the number you choose) looks like: skidslip

The black fill is just a suggestion to make it more visible.

@AndKe I created a new method for this ;-) . Please try it

Thank you, it works perfectly. Of course, my idea of solid black bar was not esthetically good, but now I know where to change it :)
