Pop Out Panel Manager | MSFS | Tutorial

This is an updated tutorial for Pop Out Panel Manager. I have received some questions regarding the application. Please let me know in the comments if you have any questions.
Note: At 5:35 I say "I don't think you can mix this stuff". What I mean is that you have to do the legacy view for all pop outs, or you can do the fixed camera where you can pick different views.

Very useful, well presented and much appreciated. Thank you.

[@IvanSkyFlight]

Thanks! Glad it helped!

[@coops5617]

Great (and timely for me) video. Very Clear!

[@IvanSkyFlight]

Glad it helped!

[@subllimecantona]

You are a lifesaver Ivan Thanks so much / was looking for this exact video to help me. It’s like u read my mind 😂

[@IvanSkyFlight]

Glad to help!

[@aldepeche]

Thank You 👌🤛👊👍

[@IvanSkyFlight]

You are welcome!

[@tubeslats]

After popping out panels, I get a message that says "Configuring built-in panel Failed". Any idea what that means?

[@tubeslats]

I reinstalled MSFS and no longer see the message.

[@IvanSkyFlight]

@@tubeslats Glad it worked out!

[@brentsnoddy1951]

Hey Ivan, can you try to get this to work on the NX Cub. I am pulling my hair out with numerous attempts with different cockpit or instrument views to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[@IvanSkyFlight]

Two questions: First, is there more than one version of the NX Cub? I see a Got Friends version on the Marketplace. Is that the one you use? Second, without running POPM are you able to manually pop out the display using the right ALT and mouse click?

[@brentsnoddy1951]

@@IvanSkyFlight Thank you for the response. 1) I am using the NX Cub that came with the simulator full version or at least I think so. I have a lot of stuff from the Marketplace but I don't recall purchasing that one from there or any other external site. TBH I didn't know that the marketplace had the NX Cub. 2) Yes, I can manually pop out the GPS display on the NX Cub and many other aircraft I currently have. I have tried numerous attempts on several aircraft and I can pop them all out but I get failure on every screen on any plane. This made me think there there is another common denominator maybe in the setup of the software, etc. I went through all that and I cannot really see anting glaring at me that would possibly solve my issue. I guess my concern is that the program doesn't work on any plane, which IMO is beyond the scope of your video or comments replies. I downloaded the latest version while watching your video and followed your process verbatim and I still get failed on every screen be it a single or multiple screens in a profile like you showed. I've watched the dev's videos and less the irritating non-verbal instructions, everything was pretty much covered in what I saw in your video. One thing I noticed is that for some reason every attempt to identify a view it seems to zoom the focus on the instrument or pilot's view. Unable to prevent that I tried reducing the size of the popoout all the way down to 50 x 50 to no avail. Frustrated I gave up late last night. Most of this I think comes from the fact that your video is very informative, simple and easy to follow. Grrr Great video BTW. I have watched a few of your previous videos in the past but now I have decided to subscribe to your channel. Thanks again! Brent

@@brentsnoddy1951 Brent, I just did a test run with the included NX Cub and it worked as advertised, so I am wondering if there is something else going as you mentioned. My best advice would be to reach out to the developer. He has a pinned response to an older video of mine. You could start there: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mp_MeX6qm9R0nMUsi=YJ-lrb04GwE5wymS

[@frankpope9273]

Thanks for this video. I am having difficulty getting the in-game menu bar panels working. I am trying to get the in-game checklist panel to pop out and appear on my iPad (I'm using spacedesk) with touch enabled. I cannot figure out how to set this up to work automatically in POPM. I can manually open the checklist and drag it to the iPad but the checklist items do not respond to touch input, only mouse input. Can you help? Thanks!

[@frankpope9273]

I just reread the POPM Getting Started manual on GitHub and it’s right there. Sorry, I missed seeing this before. All sorted now. 😂

[@wassup4597]

Hi Ivan, thank you for the video. When I tried popping out without the tool, the sim crashed. Is there a way to pop out a GPS screen in any other way on DX12?

[@IvanSkyFlight]

I don't think so. You are the second person to ask me this. I was not aware that DX12 doesn't play nice with some when pop outs are involved. I myself use DX12 and have no issues. I do see it's a commonly reported problem, but I was not able to find a solution.

[@wassup4597]

@@IvanSkyFlight Thanks for checking.

[@aaronsastronomy9236]

Used this on the PMDG 737 and it worked. I set the boundaries in the second screen and then to test it closed the popouts from the app, restarted the popouts and the screen went back to default boundaries although the values looked like they didn't change. Any thoughts here?

[@IvanSkyFlight]

I am not sure. I don't own any PMDG stuff. I don't think there is an Asobo 737. Does it work on other aircraft for you? Which 737 do you have?

[@aaronsastronomy9236]

[@jay-rus4437]

Been using this for a while. Some type of odd behavior with Fenix a320. It randomly pops out the EFB instead of the Lower ECAM. I have the pop out set to lower ecam, but for some reason it gets the efb. Its very random

[@IvanSkyFlight]

Are you using the new way to select or the legacy method?

[@jay-rus4437]

@@IvanSkyFlight …. Not sure what that means, so possibly not.

[@IvanSkyFlight]

@@jay-rus4437 Not sure if it's the selection process. There are two ways to pick you pop out with the current version of Pop Out Panel Manager. I discuss it briefly around 5:35.

[@jay-rus4437]

I have been letting it set camera view

[@IvanSkyFlight]

@@jay-rus4437 Can you pop it the area in question out manually? If so, I would give the legacy process a try.

[@ParkerRyanPerforms]

Can you help me get out manager to work for iPad air manager?

[@IvanSkyFlight]

I can try. How far have you gotten?

[@TWOKDOK1]

Do you know how to restore backups of a/c profiles please ?

[@IvanSkyFlight]

I do not, but the developer is very active, and I believe he is on github. He also responded to a previous tutorial video I did. His comment is pinned to the top. You may be able to reach him that way. Here is the video link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mp_MeX6qm9R0nMUsi=YJ-lrb04GwE5wymS

[@v-pilot]

Nice Video Do you know how to not drop fps with every pop out that is opened?

[@andybrockbank3027]

Not possible.

[@IvanSkyFlight]

I do not, but one of my upcoming videos is going to try to at least document the FPS loss of different things like pop outs and Air Manager as I do seem to get a fair number of questions about topic. Stay tuned.

[@williammuir7772]

Hi Ivan, can this work on X-Plane 11 or 12?

[@IvanSkyFlight]

Unfortunately, it does not which is a shame, because XP needs it.

[@flightsimcentre9244]

No but there is something like it texture extractor

[@tubeslats]

Sometime during almost every flight, hidden menu boarders reappear. Anyone know why or how to fix this?

[@IvanSkyFlight]

Menu borders for which software? Pop Out Panel Manager, MSFS, or something else?

[@walouigi]

I always get failure to pop out, even with only one , can you help?

[@IvanSkyFlight]

Can you pop out the panel manually?
