Click- and Customizable Radio Menu for DCS World

[Loz]

Thanks PeterP (yet again LOL) Another good addition to your "catalog" of mods.

It runs pefectly as adverstised in my centre monitor but......

 

I run an Eyefinity plus a fourth monitor Extended Desktop to the right in Windows setup BUT physically below the centre of the Eyefinity group. (I run Helios)

So is there any way with your mod to get the Clickable Radio Menu there.

It is of course well outside the GUI parameters.

Thanks again in advance

Loz

Now that I've tried it, I will.

I just completed (finally) Mission 9 of the Vergeev Campaign, thanks in part to this wonderful mod :P

I tried to make the font smaller but that broke the clickable area.

Once I reset the settings to their original state, everything worked great.

 

Request #1 - Please tell me display radio menu in smaller font

 

Thanks,

Toby

PeterP, another fantastic job getting this working in DCS again. I suspect I already know the answer -- it's really difficult -- but I'll ask anyway:

 

Is there any way to move the radio command menu around on the GUI such that it is decoupled from the 'training/mission messages' overlay and the 'ATC to player' overlay? The reason I ask is, I've used your mod here to set up the radio command menu on my lower touchscreen. Problem is, I'd like to use my left hand to select radio commands, but reaching over to the upper right of the screen is not easy. I know I can move the menu around based on the CommandMenu.lua file, but this then causes clipping issues with the 'ATC to player' overlay, which seems to want to stay to the left of the radio command menu. Any suggestions? Ideally I'd like those two menus to swap, i.e. radio commands on the left, 'ATC to player' on the right.

[-Hammer-]

Thank you PeterP for your time and effort :thumbup:

[PeterP]

Loaded up a new version that corrects a little mishap:

 

v2.1 isn't conflicting any more with click-able cockpit elements that are under the click-able area for the radio menu.

 

@ Loz, Toby and Greg

 

I will answer your questions in detail at the weekend and maybe your requested features are than already implemented...

 

In the meantime:

Pleas load up edited DCS Screen-shots ( Before/After ) - so I understand 100% what you want to achieve and how it should look at your end. - this will answer many of my questions.

[Loz]

Thanks again Peter

Here is an image of my intentions. This is how windows views it, but in reality I place the fourth monitor underneath the other 3 in a Tee.

It was so much easier, many moons ago, when you could just edit the luas to get things placed, sized and coloured how you wanted.

ED lets get back there.

 

[PeterP]

OK Captain Loz,

now I fully understand your problem - will look what can be done to span the container for the radio beyond the in-game Gui.

 

Try this workaround in the meantime:

 

First :

I assume your total res is 6048 + 1920 = 7968x1200 (info gathered by scaling up your screen-shot and out of your signature)

 

And I assume that you placed your in game-gui , via the gui-monitorsetup-edit at

X= 2068

Y=0

width=1920

height =1200

 

 

If above isn't right - change my following numbers as necessary .

 

 

for your monitorsetup.lua:

GUI =

{

x = 2208;

y = 0;

width = 5760;

height = 1200;

}

UIMainView = GUI

 

 

 

for your CommandMenu.lua:

 

local RadioMenuXpos = 500

local RadioMenuYpos = 640

 

 

Than your Briefing screen and all this stuff should appear at the left screen of your TH-row.

The Radio-massage-log will spawn at your center screen and you are finally free to place the radio-menu at your helios-screen .

PeterP, will work on coming up with a graphic showing what I mean; in the meantime, though, another question:

 

Can you point me to where the 100x12 pixel clickable box for each menu item is specified? This mod is not quite working for me, and I think the reason is that I use a 2028x1156 size render area on my lower touchscreen ... I think, for reasons I can't quite articulate, that this means that although my initial calibration point works, as I move further down the menu it becomes harder to click on any given menu item. I think it's because I need to use a clickable-area size of (2028/1920) * 100 by (1156/1080) * 12 pixels for each line of the menu.

[Joy]

It's working perfectly here, PeterP! Thanks!

[joker62]

Peter, unfortunately I had completely missed this mod until yesterday.

I've easily installed it. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

IMHO, your Mods are really MUST HAVE.

That works Peter, but is still not ideal, unfortunately, the individual selections are hard to operate with fingers in the touchscreen as they are so small.

The indicator for which channel you are using stays in a relative position to the Radio Menu and is now out of view behind Helios.

And finally the GUI, of course is now over on the right monitor which is less than ideal.

Why the heck does ED keep screwing up these things.

You had a brilliant find/solution, back in 1.1 (was it?) where we could move it, resize it, change colours, and that worked really, really well. Alas no more.

[PeterP]

I wrote that it's only a 'workaround' for you.;)

 

First let me show you how it works at my end.

 

See - I have no problems:

 

Toby wants it smaller...

Request #1 - Please tell me display radio menu in smaller font

...you want it bigger...

That works Peter, but is still not ideal, unfortunately, the individual selections are hard to operate with fingers in the touchscreen as they are so small.

...and Greg needs direct access to edit the whole calibration process as he is using probably SoftTH and scales the DCS render on his touchscreen - so the calibration is way off.

 

PeterP, will work on coming up with a graphic showing what I mean; in the meantime, though, another question:

 

Can you point me to where the 100x12 pixel clickable box for each menu item is specified? This mod is not quite working for me, and I think the reason is that I use a 2028x1156 size render area on my lower touchscreen...

 

 

 

Up to now I didn't found a real satisfying solution to solve all the problems you have with it -. And instead to work out individual solutions and talk each individual trough it ,

I will release the un-compiled AHK scripts that defines the click-able area and I will also document what I know about where to change positions and fonts of every element.

So you and others with 'special' needs can do whatever is possible and what you want/need.

 

Please be a little patient , this need some testing and than I have to write the documentation.

 

I will finish it probably during the next weekend .

Exactly correct. But Peter, it sounds like a lot of effort will be required to make the code accessible to me such that I could modify as needed, so please, don't worry about it. I'm perfectly fine using the F-keys for radio comms (I have them programmed into my X-Keys) so I don't really have a serious need to get a clickable radio working.

[PeterP]

But Peter, it sounds like a lot of effort will be required to make the code accessible to me such that I could modify as needed, so please, don't worry about it. .

 

Don't worry ,

 

I will just release documented un-compiled AHK scripts and I will also try to program a alternative calibration tool that need two steps instead of a single one. And this is how it will work:

 

First you will have to click on the top of F1 and than on the bottom of F12 - so it gets both maximal Y values - than this space will be divided by 12 and assigned to each F-key.

 

This method will than work even if people change the Font size and/or use Softth.

A simply yet elegant solution -- that sounds perfect. Thanks!

Version 3.1 is up! >>> #1 post

(it's now final/feature-closed and expect no further updates as long there are no bugs with 1.2.6.17746 and upcoming DCS builds)

v3.1

Fixes a logical flaw/bug when moving the selection down (RadioMenu_Ypos_Config) ;

The selected radio-device indicator (UHF/VHF/Intercom) won't separate from the selection menu anymore.

 

And it has two more configuration settings :

 

 

SelectionMenuLog_FontSize_Config = 15

-- 15 is default ; Font size of the Selection Menu Log (the Log above the selection)

-- Tip: set it to 12 if you want it in the same size as the selection menu.

RadioMessageLog_Width_Config = 600

-- In Pixels. I use 600px as default. Change it to your needs.

-- This allows you to have the massages in 'block' instead a single long line that reaches from the left to right.

-- When length of the line has reached its maximum it will create a new line.

The complete new ClickableRadioMenuConfig.lua :

 

--!! Keep in mind that you have to re-run the calibration when you changed the position and/or size !!



TextSize_Config = 100    -- 100 is the default. Changes the size of the RadioMessageLog and RadioMenu
                       -- Read it as percentage. Use a percentage that suits you.
                       -- I recommend to use 150 and up for a Touch-screen.
                       
SelectionMenuLog_FontSize_Config = 15         -- 15 is default ; Font size of the Selection Menu Log (the Log above the selection)
                                           -- Tip: set it to 12 if you want it in the same size as the selection menu.    

                                   
-- Radio Menu Selection position relative to the GUI. Not visible when Moved above and beyond the left/right of the GUI.
-- Default position is aligned to the Top/Right of the GUI.
               
RadioMenu_Xpos_Config = 400     -- 400 is default = 400 pixels from the left relative to the GUI window
                               -- A smaller number can result in cut-off text. This depends on your TextSize setting
                               -- min working number for 100% TextSise is 280.
                           
RadioMenu_Ypos_Config = 0         -- Vertical position in Pixels , 0 is default. Don't use negative numbers


-- Radio Message Log position relative to the GUI. The Massage Log is not visible when Moved above and beyond the left/right of the GUI.
-- Default position is aligned to the Top/Left of the GUI.    So use only positive numbers.
                           
RadioMessageLog_Xpos_Config = 0        -- Vertical position in Pixels ; 0 is default 

RadioMessageLog_Ypos_Config = 0        -- Horizontal position in Pixels ; 0 is default 

RadioMessageLog_Width_Config = 600     -- In Pixels. I use 600px as default. Change it to your needs.
                                   -- This allows you to have the massages in 'block' instead a single long line that reaches from the left to right.
                                   -- When length of the line has reached its maximum it will create a new line.                                    

-- Sorry, but I didn't found up to now how to move the Radio items outside the boundaries of the GUI.
-- But you can 'shift' the Whole Radio items.
-- This can be very helpful on Multi-Monitor systems.
                                           
ShiftRadioWindow_Horizontal_Config = 0        -- 0 is default ; Shifts the whole Radio items left/right relative to the GUI in pixels.
                                           -- This makes it possible to display all elements of the Radio Menu outside the boundaries of the GUI-Window.
                                           -- negative = left ; positive = right
                                           -- example: "-1920" = 1920px to the left ; "1920" = 1920px to the right
                                       
ShiftRadioWindow_Vertical_Config = 0        -- 0 is default ; Shifts the whole Radio items  up/down relative to the GUI in pixels.

I installed and after I click ( NO ) for did you change text size. I get the below error message.

 

Can you help with this.

 

 

What happened: It looks for a file ( Middle_Click-able_Radio_Menu.exe) in its own folder where it is executed and can't find.

Why: You moved the "Calibration_Tool.exe." out of the "Clickable Radio Menu for DCS World" folder.

 

 

Example:

Do you expect that DCS or any other program starts correctly when you move its *.exe out of the 'program' folder elsewhere and just click on it?!

 

Another example:

(to give you a better idea what all these *.exe files do ,while "sitting" in the same folder)

Lets assume you placed you right arm in the bathroom while you are still in bed in the sleeping room.

...

Can you still advise your right arm to scratch your butt?

...further:

If your right arm is able to scratch something...

Can you right arm reach your butt ?!

 

 

Solution:

Only place short-cuts (right-click > create short-cut) elsewhere (as written in the readme) - don't move the *.exe files out of their working directory.

Hi and thanks for this work!

 

Is it compatible with latest 1.2.6.18651?

 

And last question, can i run it with JSGME? If so, how to do please?

Hi and thanks for this work!

(it's now final/feature-closed and expect no further updates as long there are no bugs with 1.2.6.17746 and upcoming DCS builds)

 

This means: There will be no new version as long I or someone else discovers a bug and/or discovers a incompatibility .

 

So: Current version (3.1) is working in 1.2.6.18651

(within the limits that are mentioned in the annotations of the ClickableRadioMenuConfig.lua).

 

 

About JSGM:

Yes, you can install it with JSGM , at least the files that have to be placed into the DCS directory.

The package works 'out of the box' as long you have your JSGM install in the ..\Eagle Dynamics folder (the one before 'DCS World').

 

You can also place the "Clickable Radio Menu for DCS World" folder into DCS to keep all at one place - but this isn't really necessary.

 

Please Read the JSGM documentation for further assistance.
