[Resolved] Keybinds for embedded manual not (always) working.

I'm still at manual reading and cockpit familiarization stage - love the embedded manual concept in itself!

Its initial implementaion has some issues here and there it seems. All default keybinds ("M", open, close, toggle) work correctly... as long as I don't start actually browsing and reading the pages 😄 . Then they stop working completely.

Looks like I can only "reset" them by hitting Esc key twice (to bring up DCS pause screen and close it), then they start working once again.

Mouse seems to be OK all the time, clicking, scrolling, dragging, resizing and whatnot, no issues here.

Having to spam Esc key frequently to make binds work is not a big problem really, but I figured I'd mention it, 'cause I'm using the maunal a lot now 😉 .

P.S. - for the record, I didn't tweak UI res override, or any other special option, they're all stock for now. I'm also a pancake user, at 1440p, Win 10.

It is when the manual still has keyboard focus. It will then suck up all inputs to allow you to use for example the search bar.

If you defocus the UI by clicking elsewhere in the game, it should work.

We are trying to improve this behavior soon though.

I seem to be struggling with the interactive map. Sometimes working beautifully, sometimes seems to have a mind of its own.  

Also I find that sometimes it messes with the keyboard input.

Maybe it's just my technique. That's a possibility.

Ha! Thanks, clicking elsewhere seems to do the trick indeed. Might be not a bad idea to mention it in this "frequently asked issues" thread you're working on 🙂
