AP Baro ALT Hold not working

[Rhinozherous]

As the title says, AP does nothing when activating Barometric ALT HOLD.

Track attached.

Mine stopped working after the last update too. The nose just pitches up and down and won't hold the ALT.

It's the same for me too, I'm right in assuming that it should be on like in the picture "altitude hold".

In the Picture its in Radar Altitude hold. This will make the plane pitch up and down if not over water.

Press the Button next to RDR to get into Barometric Alt hold

Yes i know but  i was over the water  as you see. It makes no difference Baro and RDR both does not work

BARO hold works fine for me. 

[BigBorner]

For me, too. 
 

AP is just a bit weird if it’s about getting to a selected altitude. Yes, I know that I have to work the throttle for that.

Foolproof technique for me is to level out at desired altitude, hit AP, hit ALT hold. If I disengage with paddle switch to maneuver, I'll level off again, press AP, deselect ALT hold, then select it again.

On my latest flights it worked most of the time! 

You have to be in trim to get it to work... Actually now I think this is modelled close to reality as our Eagle is not the youngest and Autopilots needed more babysitting back then.
