MIlton Shupe's Dash7pkgx.zip Question

I have the Dash7 for FSX by Milton Shupe (dash7pkgx.zip). When the flaps are fully down the flap gauge goes to 32°. There are two flap sections in the aircraft.cfg. Flaps.0 says it is for leading edge flaps and has 0°, 15°, 25°, and 32°. Flaps.1 says it is for trailing edge flaps and has only 0° and 32°. The extending times are not equal for the leading edge and trailing edge flaps. I don't understand because I believe there are no leading edge flaps. Looking at the code for the flap indicator gauge says it is reading the leading edge flap position.

<gauge name="Flaps Indicator" version="1.0"><element>Can anyone explain the flap indicator gauge to me? Are there leading edge flaps?

Thanks, Bob.

I have seen articles that said there are DHC7's with 45° for short field operations. <gauge name="Flaps Indicator" version="1.0"><element><axis x="19" y="76">
