All except the smallest MFD equipped aircraft have 2 or more display screens. I would like it to be possible to select only engine instruments for the 2nd or 3rd one in a set. It would let us see engine stats bigger and easier.
At present we seem to only be able to select flight or nav screens or menus for them. Any engine information is squeezed into a small part of them.
I usually hold the right alt key and hover over everything, one of the jets for example have 4. The real problem is the MFD are missing lots of information usually found with the soft keys. The other issue I have is the PFD and MFD are displays only. So setting a flight plan means going to the main monitor instead of the little one the PFD is on. P3D is fully function on a second display so I hope to see that some day

Most Real G1000 doesn’t have such full engine page and have only this small part. Except Sirrus for example but cessna, Baron, DA40 don’t have.
Yes well since they are usually very small corners of a small screen perhaps a non-scale selectable magnified version would be nice. I want to be looking out of the windscreen and glancing at instruments - esp when setting mixture or prop RPM or seeing if shutters need opening/closing a bit.
look up the g1000 mod from WT
OK but i am rather hoping that ASOBO will do this in a future update
My old eyes have a difficult time seeing any of those tiny numbers in the G1000. maybe user defined larger fonts for the senior class. airspeed and alt. aren’t so bad but the engine readouts green on black just disappear.
