Don't use the built-in SVG/rect parser, since this bypasses creating
coordinate / command properties which some Canvas users rely upon.
This reverts commit 57a2d21ddf.
- properly referencing the canvas namespace, so that the ND module can be separately included via io.include()
- moving the initialization of aircraft specific SVG elements into the navdisplay.styles file, and the corresponding Boeing/Airbus entries there (see initialize_elements())
Emesary is a simple and efficient class based interobject communcation system to allow decoupled disparate parts of a system to function together without knowing about each. It allows decoupling and removal of dependencies by using notifications to cause actions or to query values.
Emesary is all about decoupling and removing dependecies, and improving the structure of code. Using Emesary you can more easily define the what rather than the how. By using what is essential an event driven system it is easy to add or remove modules, and also for extra modules to be inserted that the rest of the aircraft knows nothing about (e.g. FGCamera or the Walker).

The AN/SPN-46 is an ACLS implementation using Emesary. ACLS is the Navy's version of ILS.

There is also support for transmitting messages over MP which allows models to communicate with each other in a decoupled method using notifications. What happens is that bridged messags simply arrive at the Receive method of recipients in other models on other running instances without the need to do anything special.
This links together the generic MFD and the NavDisplay; it allows a fairly easy method to add a Map page to an MFD device.

Instantiate parameters:
1. pfd_device (instance of PFD_Device)
2. instrument display ident (e.g. mfd-map, or mfd-map-left mfd-map-right for multiple displays) - used to map to the property tree
3. layer_id: main layer in the SVG
4. nd_group_ident : group (usually within the main layer) to place the NavDisplay
5. [optional] switches - used to connect the property tree to the nav display. see the canvas nav display.
To add a canvas nav display page simply do
me.some_page = PFD_NavDisplay.new(me.PFD,"Situation", "mpcd-sit", "ID", "jtids_main");

At the suggestion of Gilberto AGOSTINHO, add
button bindings for throttle, mixture and prop
to the joystick configuration dialog.
Specific use-case is users of game-pads, but also
useful to users with a single throttle axis on their
joystick.
- make t/T action press and hold, with some acceleration factor and
clamping to a maximum rate. (Avoids confusing latching-mode of
previous system(
- show the local time of day while adjusting.
Values are based on some experimentation, feedback welcome on the
mailing list.
- Since joystick.PropertyScaleAxis instances have a 'prop' attribute
indicating the property name, it seems logical to have
joystick.PropertyScaleAxis.parse() set this attribute based on the
property name in its argument ('p').
- This commit also tries to improve readability by using a 'bindingNode'
variable instead of repeatedly calling 'p.getNode("binding", 1)'.
- Commit 5bcf58c7d6 forgot to set the
'inverted' attribute when there was no 'factor' node in the argument's
'binding' node. Fix this.
- Also copy the argument's 'factor' value to the 'factor' instance
attribute for consistency, since joystick.PropertyScaleAxis instances
have such an attribute initialized in the constructor.
