That worked perfectly, thanks. Love it that after using FSUIPC for so many years you can still find new things you can do with it 😄

Hi Pete, This weekend I have been able to put some time in it, and it works great via macros. I don't even need to specify the parameter in the macro files as I can pass it via the parameter in FSUIPC itself. I am really happy with the result. Do have a question regarding my solution now though. As there are a max of 10 steps, I do have 1 set to off, and the other 9 as steps in brightness from low to max. As I have connected it to an axis, which goes from roughly -16000 to 16000, and the brightness control in the PMDG 777 can be set from 0 to 300, is there a way to translate the axis value to an equivalent in the 0 to 300 range, so that I get a smoother brightness level control?

Thank you for the quick response. Working with macros is fine for me, although I do not have experience with it. In the manual I see specifically a section about it, and it seems to work with recording mouse macros, but is it also possible to send custom control events with parameters in a macro? I can't find an example somewhere which I can use to apply to my configuration.

Hi, I'm using FSUIPC for many years already, from FSX to P3D in various versions. I've never really had issues with it, but I now am trying to achieve something which doesn't seem to work for me, and I hope that someone can advise if it's actually possible what I am trying to do. Currently, I'm using P3D v4.5 together with the PMDG 777; my controllers are the Saitek X-55 combination of Throttle and Flightstick. I've now set up one of the axis on the throttle (rotary knobs) to have 10 zones, and these 10 zones trigger a custom control with various parameters. (This work perfectly) Zone 1 - Custom Control 71733 (Glareshield Flood Light) - Parameter 0 (Off) Zone 2 - Custom Control 71733 (Glareshield Flood Light) - Parameter 15 (10% brightness) Zone 3 - Custom Control 71733 (Glareshield Flood Light) - Parameter 30 (20% brightness) ... Zone 10 - Custom Control 71733 (Glareshield Flood Light) - Parameter 150 (100% brightness) Now, I would like to add multiple custom controls to each zone, as the PMDG 777 has 4 different knobs and events for the Flood Lights (Glareshield, FWD Left, FWD Right, Pedestal). When I am trying to add the exact same line for the zone, but then with the different custom control, it does not work. Also when I go over the 10 lines for the axis, FSUIPC removes all lines from the FSUIPC.ini file. Is there a way to still keep the 10 zones, but let each zone trigger 4 different custom controls, just as I would be able to do with a normal button? Recap, I'd like the following to happen: Zone 1 - Custom Control 71733 & 72852 & 72482 & 70369 - Parameter 0 (off) Zone 2 - Custom Control 71733 & 72852 & 72482 & 70369 - Parameter 15 (10%) etc. Thanks in advance.
