Piglets Gauge Placement

I'm looking for some assistance from anyone who has been successful moving gauges in any of Tim's airplanes. To my knowledge all of his panels are done this way and I have never been able to understand how they were placed since he doesn't use the typical placeholder I'm used to seeing with other airplanes. As you can see in the screenshot, using FSPanel Studio his gauges are simply arranged on the page much like a texture sheet for scenery objects. The switches are what I need to fix as you can see they overlap the other control panel that contains the throttle, carb heat and primer. All his gauges and switches are contained in a cab file with individual xml files for each. I've checked the xml files but all they contain is the switch size, there's no position information in the xml.

Any suggestions?
