In-Game Scratchpad Mod Available - Works Great In VR!

Looks like it's certain characters in the L/L text, e.g. the degree symbol, that cause the backspace to go crazy.

How to add waypoint to NS430 in real time? Following the REDME seems need manually add the content which the scratchpad generated in to DCS files.

I can use this tool fine in-game but in Mission Editor the boxes at the bottom are gone with no way to interact.  Anyone else have this issue?

do you mean the L/L+ ?

[speed-of-heat]

The only show up in the F10 map in game, not in mission briefing I see you have looked an issue (if you searched closed issues you would have found the answer there) No +L/L shows up in F10 map where it did before · Issue #34 · rkusa/dcs-scratchpad (github.com)

[speed-of-heat]

if its any consolation, i still don't why the API only works there either...

[Captain Orso]

Why would you need it in the ME?! You add the waypoint to the aircraft and that's it! It is now in the list of waypoints of the aircraft.

[speed-of-heat]

You don’t really in ME, in mission planning it’s sometimes useful though

I made an update to the WIP extensions PR: https://github.com/rkusa/dcs-scratchpad/pull/35#issuecomment-1276290786

Text edits from extensions should be more reliable now.

Where is the download for these @Binary?

Avis au createur de ScratchpadPlus

WOW: c'est magique. tu devrais inscrire tes coordonnees, pour garder le crédit dans le fichier de licence ou le readme. (surnom, identifiant Discord ou courriel)
mais j'ai un doute que tu es sur ce fil de discussion.

TK: un gros merci, c'est presque tricher !

@speed-of-heat The download link from my previous post (https://github.com/rkusa/dcs-scratchpad/archive/refs/heads/extensions.zip) gives you the latest version of this work-in-progress feature, so you can use it again.

This is a QWERTY Keyboard for @Binary's new extensions for scratchpad.

I couldn't get the formatting to work @icemaker,  nor could I get the degree symbol to behave properly so i have removed them and the "|" symbol because i like tidy lines

Thanks for this, but I can't see any difference between this and your previous version.  Editing is still problematic.

Hello, I have downloaded the latest version but I can't open or see it?
I have followed the installation (very simple).
When I do crtl+shift+x nothing appears.

I am using an azerty keyboard, Although flying with a VR, the test was done on a screen without vr.

Any idea? solution?

[speed-of-heat]

did you install it correctly in the save games directory ?

[Recluse]

Hey, it looks like today's 2.8 Open Beta update broke Scratchpad!  The Scratchpad window still comes up and can be typed into, but it will no longer pull the coordinates off the map 

 

Any chance of a fix??   My little group of Multiplayers relied on it heavily.  Thanks!!

Works nicely!

Now, let's hope for an update to Scratchpad.
