  1. Could you possibly share your expertise (as per my other comment) about why mouse clicking seems to work on PMDG 777 despite I believe this uses WASM and not html/javascript? Also with your idea about passing x/y coordinates into the wasm, I propose another solution to @iniSteven which may significantly reduce those simconnect overheads. Why not have clickable regions - i.e. pass the corners of 2D polygons as x/y coordinates through simconnect as "clickable regions", each representing a button or field on the current MFD page which can be clicked, along with an identifier. Then have an LVAR which can trigger one of these regions to be clicked. And/or another solution would be to pass the currently displayed mfd page as an LVAR string with some markup language style tags, with clickable buttons/fields having a tag associated with the LVAR value which triggers it. Then an external dev could produce the basic graphics to reproduce the MFD on their home cockpit or software add-on.
  2. Firstly, I would like to second the other comments here about having missing click/touch functionality in the pop out displays. I think is it very disappointing and not well thought through for customers that don't want to keep changing their camera view in order to make MFD inputs. That rant being over, I note that the PMDG 777, unless I am mistaken, uses WASM guages for the lower EICAS and this works with pop out mouse inputs for the checklists. So mouse inputs for WASM on pop out must be somehow possible. I think this is something inibuilds should investigate.
