Active Pause

[CBStu]

Did active pause go away w/ 2.8? I don't remember if it was something built-in or if I did it, but my 'P' key used to be active pause and 'pause/break' key was complete pause.

Yes, they moved it and we can't assign a stick button to it anymore. You'll need to use key presses now. Too bad I use it all the time to write stuff down.

 

edit...I just assigned it to the mouse scroll wheel press. That will be easy to use.

Tom like one of the guys in the link you posted , UI layer?? Module dropdown list?? I see 'Module Manager' and 'Options' and I see nothing. I expect it is in 'Options' somewhere and I missed it. Any help would be great.

^ Options -> Controls -> UI Layer, first command on top. Apparently new default combo is LShift+LWin+Pause.

^^ this. thanks

Art and Tom thank you both very much. I have flown only the FA-18 for 2 yrs now so every time I get into controls I never even look at that left column since I never need to change it. So far, after just two missions in 2.8 Stable this is all I have found changed. I will see if it stays this way tomorrow.

I have it on Voice Attack. It's great.

 

Without Voice Attack I'd be lost in DCS.
