Hi everyone,
Over the pas few weeks/months, I have been building an overhead panel for my simulator. I purchased FSUIPC to help assign commands to the toggle switches I wanted to use. I thought the the mouse trapping technique would be easiest. I just have a single issue. I fly many different planes with different panels. I want to be able to be able to use my overhead in every aircraft I fly without having to create a new file or keep changing the commands every time. Is there any way that I could "save" a mouse macro file? So I could load the "level D" file and have all the switches assigned and then switch to the iFly 737 and load the iFly file and have all the switches assigned.
I know this may sound confusing. If needed, perhaps I can explain this in another way.
Thanks.
Ben
Saving a Mouse Macro file
in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules

Its a pleasure to talk with you, Pete. I read the section in the guide again and still don not quite understand it.
Say switch 1 is assigned to navigation lights in the 737. In the "buttons and switches" tab, I can see the switch is assigned to the Macro file I made with the 737. I want to assign that same switch to navigation lights in the 767. Right now, I would have to create a new MACRO file and assign each switch to the same function, just in a different panel. So when I want to go back to the 737, I will have to go through every switch. I would like to be able to save a folder "737" where if I load it. all my switches are assigned to their respective controls. Then, all I would have to do is load the "767" folder where all the switches are configured for a 767.
Perhaps another, potentially easier way would be if FSUIPC was able to detect the panel and link which MACRO file uses that panel.
I apologize if this is explained in the Users Manual. I don't completely understand it.
Thank you very much
Ben
