Melomar Posted September 13, 2020 Posted September 13, 2020 (edited) Hi, I've mapped the Constellation Alpha Scroll Wheel to the Kneepad/Kneeboard Previous Page and Next Page in my aircraft but it does not seem to work in the Cockpit. VPCJoy Tester indicates the Scroll Wheel is activating the logical buttons they are mapped too. In DCS FA18 Control Mapping, it recognises the buttons when I map them to the Kneepad Prev/Next Page function, next to the "[" and "]" buttons. But it does not change the Kneepad pages in game. I've tried mapping the Scroll Wheel as "Encoder Scroll", "Encoder Scroll (Buffered)", "Encoder Dial", "Encoder Dial (Buffered)" in the VPC Setup, but still can't get the Scroll Wheel to change my Kneepad pages even though the DCS Control Mapping allows me to set the logical buttons that scroll wheel is mapped to. Any ideas? Edited September 24, 2020 by Melomar Problem was resolved.
Melomar Posted September 24, 2020 Author Posted September 24, 2020 [Resolved] Turns out that the problem was between the chair and the joystick. The Alpha scroll wheel was working fine. Just that in DCS, besides mapping the up/down scroll to Kneeboard next/prev page, I had also mapped it as mouse scroll up/down in the UI Layer category. And since I fly in VR, mouse controls are always active, so the Alpha scroll wheel inputs were interpreted as mouse scroll inputs instead of Kneeboard next/prev page inputs.
