UFC programmed to Number Pad

[Dispatch]

Maybe the keypad could be programmed to UFC Input?

 

 

Thanks

What do you mean? just go to controls and change the keybindings. That's what I have done.

The NumPad keys are also used for the default View keys, that's why I opted to use LCtrl + Num# instead, and it's equally easy to use the right hand to input the digit, while the left one keeps the Left Control down.

Yup, I've been doing that since my days flying Falcon 4.0

 

The fun question is - do you map them as your numeric keypad is, or in the order they are on the UFC?

You can pull the keys off a numpad and repalce/program them as they are on the UFC.

I'm using a Autohotkey script to have different mappings dependant on the NumLock state, without overriding the cursor keys or the block above.

With that you'll send RWin + Numpad keys when NumLock is off, which I use for the UFC, or the keypad in the Viggen for example. Just tap NumLock and get the view control back, plus the current state is visible by the LED (well, not with an VR HMD mounted...

Kool :smartass:- another great idea / will check this out

Order they are on the UFC, which trips me up as a I do a lot of data entry for work. I just remind myself to look at the ufc when I’m doing it ;)

For me, I have it in order of the keyboard, as when I am writing down 9line co-ordinates and then typing them in from my kneeboard I default to data entry mode from work.

Numeric keypad. Used to do a lot of data entry at work (still do, on occasion) and it'd just glitch me out to swap them. I would use the UFC layout if I had a dedicated UFC panel though.
