MSFS Pop Out Panel Manager (with Touch Panel Support)

Hi all,

Currently working on an Air Manager / Nvidia 4000 series card specific issue regarding DLSS3 frame generation where frame generation only works on the main monitor when in focus Description. It looks like it is an MSFS issue and not an Nvidia issue.

Here is the issue, when using Air Manager on a 2nd monitor and main game monitor has frame generation on, as soon as I touch the Air Manager monitor, the game lost focus and frame generation gets disable. The only way to reenable it is to use my mouse to click on the main monitor again to set focus on MSFS.

For example, I’ve 25 FPS on LAX with traffic taking off (a little stuttery), with frame generation enabled, I’ll have about 50FPS which is extremely smooth for take off. But as soon as I touch Air Manager monitor to say adjust the heading knob, frame generation got disable immediately and I’m down to 25FPS for take off. I will then need to use my mouse to click on main monitor to reenable frame gen again. This back and forth monitor focus issue just kills the immersion.

So, I’m adding a new feature to POPM that you can specify an entire monitor (my setup has 4 monitors) to detect touch and it uses the same touch refocus logic to set focus back to the game window. This way, after I touch Air Manager monitor to adjust flight control (FPS goes down for a split second) and a second later, refocus kicks in and FPS goes right back up. You can also use this feature standalone if you don’t need any pop out for your aircraft. Maybe Asobo will fix this issue in SU13!

Please let me know if you’ve experienced this issue. I’m currently in testing phase of this feature and will roll it out to v4.0.1 beta in the next couple days. Please stay tune since I’ve few more things to figure out, for example, mixing touch-enable pop out panel and Air Manager panel on the same monitor.
