Kneeboard problem

At least with DCS 1.5, it works fine for me ... most likely it's a side efect of a Mod, try to disable all Mods for a while and try again.

Glad you found the cause ... I've the kneeboard paging mapped on buttons of my Joystick, so I actually don't remember what are the keys :)

 

Since about three months ago, I'm using an old iPad 1 (that my daughter's no longer uses) to hold the manuals and procedures of every module that I have .. using the "Goodreader" v3.2 App (later versions are not compatible with the iOS 5 of this iPad); so I actually now use the kneeboard just to see the map :)

Yes, it's a real shame about the modules not using the same assignments for things that are standard across modules. They do it for views, so why not for kneeboard?

 

I showed all of these assignments for the Ka-50 in the KIF video on Yt and then people were complaining they couldn't see the kneeboard in other modules (using the Ka-50 keys) - having previously had the opposite issue.

 

I know the Ka-50 is the oldest module, and things changed and got updated since, but surely an update to make standard assignments for commands that are present in every module makes sense.

I have it now. Didn't realize to advance kneeboard page is rctl + ]. I thought ] worked for all modules. :doh:

 

I have the Ka-50 Kneeboard mapped separately to my G-Keys keypad to my Logitech G510 keyboard. The Logitech keyboard has a G-key utility that can build/layout specific layouts to each plane and indexes them separately as separate choices.

 

It works nicely.

 

I use the same setup for all my aircraft. Careful : the key-commands may not be the same as the aircraft differ.

 

There is also this free utility :
