Custom Style Items

Panel Grammar
Corner brackets replace full borders; ticks and scales persist along panel edges.
Color Discipline
Reserve cyan for active telemetry, amber for caution, and red for alarms; keep all color areas thin and sparse.
Information Planes
Reticle above map, map above grid, with telemetry layered across the interface.
Numeric Focal Point
One oversized monospaced numeric readout anchors otherwise small, dense type.
