Many times in combat, tracking targets with my trackir4, I wish I could very quickly snap my view to the instrument panel, and back to my target. However, I find that if the trackir is set up with superfast responsiveness, the view becomes very 'jittery', and requires smoothing that takes away the responsiveness needed. I'm a widescreen user, so I lose a little of the picture at the top and bottom. My request is for a new snap view that shows the instruments as well as a view forward for orientation.

Here is the forward view from an Il-2 in widescreen 'normal' FOV. Instruments cannot be seen.



Here is the look front down view. Instruments can be seen, but no view forward (where the hell am I going?)



Here is a view that is halfway between. Instruments can be seen, as well as a view forward for orientation. I would love to be able to bind a joystick key to snap to (and back from) this view while tracking targets.



B-25H forward view. Bottom row of instruments cannot be seen.



B-25H look front down view. Notice how dark the instruments are.



A view halfway between. View of gunsight and instruments. Notice the instruments are brighter than the previous views.



What say you gods of mods? Can this be done? My request is for an additional view, not a replacement of an existing view if possible. I would think users without trackir would benefit too.
