[Bug?] minor wing sweep lever bug with mouse wheel control

[Vilab]

Hello,

 

the two extreme position of the lever can be reached from one an other with the mouse wheel

 

dragging the mouse Wheel backward over the wing position lever at overswep position allows to reach the fully forwarded position, and vice versa

Same here..

If I scroll my mouse over the lever...it goes from over sweep to full forward (28 sweep). then if I right click my mouse...it slowly returns to oversweep

I want to bump this thread with a track because even after some changes to the wing sweep related systems this old issue is still not solved.

newest Stable DCS 2.7.16.28157 (= current OB)

see the very short track, please.

 

1.) What I did:

just scrolled the mouse wheel downwards (nothing else)

 

expected behaviour:

sweep lever should stay down (max oversweep position)

 

what happens:

sweep lever magically jumps into maximum top position and spreads the wings to the max.

 

2.) after the first jump to the top position the track shows another related issue:

I scrolled the mousewheel downwards from the top position of the lever and it gets stuck at the position where it should go to oversweep.

I waited for the wings to reach max sweep, but downscrolling the mousewheel does not push the lever over this "detent".

Only grabbing the lever with the left mouse button and pulling it downwards a bit does the job.

After that I once again scrolled the mousewheel down and the (2nd) jump to the max forward position occurred a soon as lever reaches the max oversweep position.

 

Issue here: I don't see why the scrolling can't do what grabbing with the left mouse button can at the "detent".
