Sorry for the late reply. Can you email your 'KneeboardBuilder.exe.config' to me at s13solutions@hotmail.com. The config file is located in the main Kneeboard Builder folder. Thanks again and I apologize for the difficulties you are having.
-
If the profile is not set as the default profile then make sure you select the profile using the taskbar icon after you save it.
-
Thanks for the info. Have you tried running it as an administrator\?

Sorry for the delayed response, I was away travelling. Skullleader, Is it doing that for every .pdf file you try to import or just the one? If it is just the one could you send me the .pdf file? Thanks. metalfan_6666, Have you completely closed and restarted Kneeboard Builder since you finished installing your two modules in DCS World? Also make sure Kneeboard Builder is pointing to the correct DCS World installation (Standard, OpenAlpha or OpenBeta) in 'Options -> Preferences' fitness88, I must admit I am stumped as to why it is not working correctly for you. Just to clarify things: Are the values in the standard installation ViewportHandling.lua only being changed to the values from your OpenBeta profiles? Or are the values not being changed at all?
-
Got it. Thanks again.
-
Could you send me a copy of the kneeboard profile that isn't working for you? They are in the 'Config' folder. Thanks.
-
The issue seems to be your ViewportHandling.lua isn't being updated correctly by KneeboardBuilder for some reason. I will run through my code again.
-
Have you tried a fresh Kneeboard Builder install?

I thought it was a bug with my program, but it seems to be working correctly with my install of DCS 1.5.2 and Kneeboard Builder seems to be updating the correct files. Double check that Kneeboard Builder is pointing to the right DCS World install under 'Options -> Preferences' and make sure that 'Standard' is selected. After updating the kneeboard position using Kneeboard Builder you could check the 'ViewportHandling.lua' located at '...\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Scripts\Aircrafts\_Common\Cockpit/ViewportHandling.lua' and see if the position was updated correctly. You should see something like this at the very top of the file: local kneeY = 800 local kneeX = 550 local kneePosY = 276 local kneePosX = 1365 The numbers should match the position you set in Kneeboard Builder. KneeX and KneeY are the kneeboard size and kneePosX and kneePosY are for the position of the kneeboard on the screen. Make sure you are selecting the correct kneeboard profile using the Kneeboard Builder taskbar icon. If the 'ViewportHandling.lua' is not updating correctly, try deleting (or renaming) the 'Config' folder in the Kneeboard Builder folder and rebuild your profiles in Kneeboard Builder. Hopefully that helps.

That is a bug. I will try to push out an update in the next day or two now that the holidays are over.

The offset function is used when you are exporting gauges or views to another screen. In such a case your total DCS World screen resolution might show as 2220 x 1600 when your main DCS window is really only 1920 x 1080, making the kneeboard show outside of the main DCS window. The offset function allows you to set a -300 pixel X and -520 pixel Y offset to make the kneeboard show up inside the main DCS screen at the correct position. If you are using three screens just as single wide DCS display window you should leave the offsets at 0 and position the kneeboard in Kneeboard Builder like you would normally with just a single screen. I hope that makes sense. Let me know if you need a better explanation.
-
Fixed it. Thanks for noticing.
-
Did you try running it as an administrator? It may need the additional permissions to access some files in your DCS World install directory.

Here is a fixed 'device_init.lua' file that will get the kneeboard working in the Mirage. For the OpenAlpha: Place it in your '...\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World 2 OpenAlpha\Mods\aircraft\M-2000C\Cockpit' directory and overwrite the original 'device_init.lua'. (Make a backup copy first). For the OpenBeta: Place it in your '...\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World 2 OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\M-2000C\Cockpit' directory and overwrite the original 'device_init.lua'. (Make a backup copy first). device_init.lua

[All Modules] Move/Edit Kneeboard position
AlaskanGrizzly replied to Lilkiki's topic in DCS World 1.x (read only)
Likiki, There is an error in line 33: Line 33 dedicated_viewport = {default_x,default_y,default_width,default_height} Change to: dedicated_viewport = {kneePosX,kneePosY,kneeX,kneeY} I made the necessary changes in the attached file. ViewportHandling.lua -
[All Modules] Move/Edit Kneeboard position
AlaskanGrizzly replied to Lilkiki's topic in DCS World 1.x (read only)
I have heard that if you position the kneeboard in the center of the screen you should be able to use it with Oculus. -
Yes. The custom kneeboards work online as well. The only thing not working correctly online at this point in DCS 1.5 and 2.0 are the mission briefing and radio dynamic kneeboard pages. Those are kneeboard pages that are automatically generated from the mission file that show the weather, tasks and aircraft specific radio channels.

Here is the Kneeboard Builder website for more information and to download: http://www.dcskneeboardbuilder.com

I'll work on including that in the next release. It's taking a bit longer than I expected to located the problem code. I will try to get a fixed version released within the next few days. In the mean time, closing out kneeboard builder and opening it again with show the correct images. The files are being modified correctly, only the user interface is not updating to reflect the changes correctly.
-
Thanks for letting me know. I will take a look. UPDATE: It looks like I messed up and reversed some things in the code. I will try to get a fix out today after I get off work. Thanks again for pointing that out.
