I kept tinkering and added the following optional enhancements to the original Info Bar from p42.

All the features are adjustable in the menu:

• Stack Label (labels and values shown in two lines when using the single-line view)
• Uppercase Labels (labels displayed in small caps instead of lowercase)
• Align Center (centers the Info Bar instead of aligning it to the left)
• Dark Background (with opacity) – for better contrast, with adjustable transparency
• Option: Added Local Time
• Option: Added Flaps indicator
• Renamed the Label "fpm" to "VS" and added the Unit fpm
• UTC fix (It shows correct UTC time now)
• Added local time
• Added parking brake status (off / set)
• Added landing gear status (up / down / fixed)
• Added trim indicators for planes and helicopters (Elev.T, Ail.T Rud.T - in case of helicopters it shows Lon.T and Lat.T instead)
• Addes the possibility to hide Units (context-critical prefixes and suffixes (e.g. FL for Flight Level and cardinal directions N/S/E/W) remain always visible.
• Visual adjustments as well as warning indicators for implausible states (e.g. parking brake set in flight, or landing gear lever activated on ground)
• Improved resizing of the bar using the mouse wheel (now adjustable in 5% steps)
• minor fixes

I still need to reconsider the centered alignment option (which definitely works), because the bar can be moved. I didn’t read that part carefully at first. Well, as long as the bar isn’t moved, it can still make sense.

Attention, please read carefully.

That's the first version so far. I’ll continue working on it and plan to add a few more indicators and make further adjustments.

Installation / how to use:

• Unzip to the community folder.
• The next time you start the sim, open Flow backend (longpress on a widget)
• Copy the name of the addon "p42-util-flow-plerzelwupp-infobar" in the field under "Community Widgets" (see picture). This step is only required in MSFS 2024.
• From there, move the info bar into the wheel.
• Make your adjustments in the right menu of the widget (see picture)

Additional information:

• To change the size, just scroll the bar with your mousewheel
• You also can move the bar with your mouse (e.g. for VR) - and reset the position
• You can change the order of appereance in the js section. Just change the row under "// -- main array of all label/value pairs --"

Update:

• Take the old widget out of the circle
• Delete the addon (community folder)
• Install new addon

I originally made this for myself and I’m happy to share it. Please don’t rate it poorly if something isn’t quite perfect yet — this is a hobby project I work on in my free time.

• If you notice any issues, let me know and I’ll fix them.
• And if something doesn’t work as expected, just ask — I’m happy to help.
