I recently purchased the Alabeo Cessna 172RG and for some reason there is no GPS popup or a GPS is on the panel. If anyone could show me how to add one or lead me to instructions to add a GPS, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Ryan

After ten seconds of googling...

Hi Ryan, it's an easy fix. First, go into the panel folder of your C172RG and open the Panel.cfg file (using notepad).
At the top of the list you'll see [Window Titles] and add the below entry and be sure to replace the 2 xx's with the appropriate number sequence following the other entries.
Windowxx=GPS
Next, go down the list of window entries below [Window Titles] and add the following entry in the same corresponding number order as what you added for the GPS window in [Window Titles]. That should do it.
[Windowxx]
Background_color=0,0,0
size_mm=456,378
pixel_size=456,378
//window_size_ratio=1.000
position=2
visible=0
ident=GPS_PANEL
window_size= 0.500, 0.480
window_pos= 0.000, 0.090
gauge00=fs9gps!gps_500, 0,0,456,378
[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
Open your panel.cfg and add the following:
XX is the Window # in sequence with existing popup windows. For consistency I have most of GPS standardized as Window03 but you may not want to do this.
/--------------------------------------------------------
WindowXX=GPS
/--------------------------------------------------------
[WindowXX]
Background_color=0,0,0
size_mm=456,378
window_pos= 0, .62
window_size= 0.200, 0.380
window_size_ratio=1.000
visible=0
ident=GPS_PANEL
Type=SPECIAL
gauge00=fs9gps!gps_500, 0,0,456,378
Hope this helps!

I made this window with AP attached.
[Window01]
Background_color=16,16,16
size_mm=245,245
window_size_ratio=1.000
position=7
visible=0
ident=GPS_PANEL
window_size= 0.289, 0.409
window_pos= 0.712, 0.591
gauge00=fs9gps!gps_500, 0,1,245,187
gauge01=737-400!Autopilot, 0,190,245,54
gauge02=737-400!Nav GPS Switch, 212,224,16
I used a similar one to yours on my military aircraft.
Not quite as "upscale" as your solution but for simple aircraft I go with:
[WindowXX]
Background_color=0,0,0
size_mm=456,310//
window_pos= 0, .60//
window_size= 0.200, 0.40 //.500
window_size_ratio=1.000
//position=6
visible=0
ident=GPS/Autopilot
type=SPECIAL
gauge00=Bendix_King_Radio!Bendix-King Radio AP, 0,0,456,60
gauge01=fs9gps!gps_500, 0,60,456,240
gauge02=..\..\Maule_M7_260C\panel\Maule_M7_260C!sw itch_nav_gps, 0,220,30,35
