A350-When will A350 MFD support Touchscreen?

[majzabc]

It's way more convenient for players who have touchscreen for popping up instruments, like ND and MFD.

BTW just like flybywire's A380, their FMS and ND is touchable.

Just wondering how long it will take for my favorite type of aircraft and workshop to realize this need.

And plus the XPDER and WX RADAR should be automatically turned on after engine start according to the FCOM I have, but I'm not 100% sure so hope someone will have the answer for me.

Thank u all for reading and answering all my questions~

Looks Like Never.

I Asked several times but got not proper answer from developers, one guy told me he asked from team and they answered technically  MSFS doesn't support this feature But already OIS popup window supports touch and the other screens not that is wired . My latest inquiry is here 

 and unfortunately @Eddie didn't get back .

The reason the OIS is supported by touchscreens is that it's coded in JS and runs outside the WASM module of the aircraft. the MFD, as a core part of the aircraft avionics, has to be part of the WASM module and it is not possible for these screens to be controlled by a touchscreen.

And yet this is possible in the PMDG 777, which has remained essentially the same aircraft since the P3D days and, as far as I know, also uses WASM for its primary flight displays.

Unfortunately, limitations like these are a major deterrent for me when considering future iniBuilds aircraft purchases.

The decision to merge all screens into a single display on the A340, effectively removing the ability to pop out individual screens for home cockpit setups, was also a huge disappointment. These restrictions really are the final straw.

No other top-tier developers impose limitations like these on serious simmers.
