[SUGGESTION] multiple lcd pages

Hi
today i'd like to introduce and raise an interesting topic about LCD management and related digital_instruments.ini settings

We know that currently AC doesn't support multiple pages for motec so i belive it could be very useful and highly recommended to add some option in the ini file.

Use assigned keystrokes to operate (possibly PAGE-UP and PAGE-DOWN by default, with the option to customize it

Here will follow just an easy example of what i mean

Code:

[HEADER]
Version=2

[SCR_DEFAULT]
INDEX=1 ;INDEX call the tab linked to the info which uses standard names for an easier management
;index list MAIN, TIME, TYRE, TEMP, MISC

[ITEM_0]
PARENT=car_motec
TAB=MAIN
POSITION=-0.0085, -0.0115, -0.003
TYPE=GEAR
SIZE=0.018
COLOR=40,35,35,5
INTENSITY=0.3
FONT=A-Font
ALIGN=CENTER

[ITEM_1]
PARENT=car_motec
TAB=MAIN
POSITION=0.0030, -0.0115, -0.003
TYPE=SPEED
SIZE=0.018
COLOR=40,35,35,5
INTENSITY=0.3
FONT=A-Font
UNITS=System
ALIGN=RIGHT

[ITEM_2]
PARENT=car_motec
TAB=MISC
POSITION=-0.0270, -0.0035, -0.003
TYPE=FUEL
PREFIX=
POSTFIX=L
SIZE=0.008
COLOR=40,35,35,5
INTENSITY=0.3
FONT=A-Font
ALIGN=RIGHT

which's your opinion about it?
best regards

 

Surely a nice feature I really would like to see, can't evaluate how much coding effort is needed, so can't understand if something that could be considered from developer in the near future.

But for sure something nice/useful to have

 

Also, another interesting feature, beside the topic i started is the chance to link existing apps into the LCD with a call like:

Code:

[READ]
APPNAME=  ;insert the name of the app (python dir)
POSITION=

what do you think? i belive this can provide unlimited combo
cheers

 

Would love to see multiple pages allowed. On touring cars it seems to be a single button to scroll through the pages. On the BMW 320 ST it has about 6 pages.
