cfarsr Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 I'm learning the ropes here and everyone has been quick to respond. Which I appreciate. With that said, in navigating, I tried to dial the numbers after the decimal point but could only adjust the volume. The numbers before the decimal point are OK with the scroll function but I can't proceed with the training until I dial the number to .3. Is this a bug or is there something I'm missing? Is there another way to set the ILS?
Tailgate Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 The mouse wheel should work on the decimals (if you have one).
cfarsr Posted July 19, 2012 Author Posted July 19, 2012 Its a laptop. With that said, the digits before the decimal work. Don't know why the scroll option isn't available after the decimal point. Any other ideas? Also, my wings are transparent to the point I can see the pylons and flaps through the wings. Any ideas on that as well?
BigfootMSR Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 Honestly, I would try alt+tabbing out and then back in.. this seems to solve some issues with not being able to click on buttons.

cfarsr Posted July 19, 2012 Author Posted July 19, 2012 Still no go. It looks like they layered too many options on that switch to be able to use just a laptop mouse. Bummer I plugged my mouse in and it works as promised. Are there any applications available that can act as a mouse wheel on a laptop touch pad?

Nope but if you have an iPad or an Android flavor tablet there are a few programs that will allow you to control each of those buttons, switches and dials...

PeterP Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 (edited) You can always use Autohotkey to assign two unused keyboard-keys or joystick buttons as mouse wheel up/down. From the AHK help: Install AHK and use this example script and change it to your needs: #NoEnv ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases. #Warn ; Recommended for catching common errors. SendMode Input ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability. SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir% ; Ensures a consistent starting directory. d:: ; "d" is mouse wheel down - change "d" to your needs sendevent {WheelDown} return u:: ; "u" is mouse wheel up - change "u" to your needs sendevent {WheelUp} return Edited July 19, 2012 by PeterP
Tailgate Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) If I recall the keys aren't assigned by default in the config screen. Before finding out about the scroll wheel, I assigned unused key combinations, I believe rCtrl + I or something like that. (that was in 1.1., I haven't checked 1.2). Edited July 20, 2012 by Tailgate
