You have been more than helpful. I really appreciate it! Barry

So I can summarize the process as follows: (1) Use the internal FS mapping if at all possible. (2) Use FSUIPC if specialized (unable to map in standard FS) key combinations are necessary.. Thanks again! Barry

Hi Pete, I don't know why I didn't think of doing the mapping in FS. I just automatically assumed that FSUIPC key mapping utility would be the place. Just wondering what the FSUIPC version would be used for, unless there was some functions missing. :) Thanks again, sorry to confuse you! Barry

Thanks Pete, I will follow your suggestion. Take care! Barry

Sorry to be so confusing.. Lets break down the two functions (and maybe they are the same but not functioning that way). I am using a Targus USB 10 Key Pad because of space limitations. So I use this for all ATC functionality, and other features as well. In FSUIPC the key mapping feature I am mapping my Back Space key on the Targus keypad to the function Toggle Panel, I believe. This basically switches the whole 2D panel on and off. Great. The W key will toggle the main 2D panel off and switch to the "mini panel view" of which I have setup a mini PFD to display. in this "W" mode. The Backspace key (toggle panel) doesn't toggle the PFD mini panel, but currently the W key does. So I want to map my what ever the W key is doing to the Num / so I can toggle it off of my Targus Keypad? Make sense ? If the Toggle Panel in FSUIPC is supposed to launch the mini panel, then you are right I don't need to do anything. But I can tell you, it doesn't launch the mini panel. It just turns the whole 2D panel on and off. Let me know if I need to clarify it more. Hopefully I have made sense? Thanks! Barry

Hi Pete, If I map via FS the W key to Num / for example, it doesn't work. IE Via FS Assignments: I replaced the W key with the Num/ and nothing. I restored the W back to the Panel On/Off, and W works.. Any ideas? Barry

I currently have the Toggle Panel mapped to my backspace key on my keypad via FSUIPC and it works fine. Doing the mapping in FS for the W key makes sense.. I'll check it out! Thanks Pete! Barry

I want to Map the W key for the mini panel to a numerica keypad key. Does anybody know what funtion in FSUIPC the W key (mini panel) represents? Thanks! Barry

Got it! Barry

I would like to map the "W" key to the Backspace key on a ten key pad? Which key mapping do I use in FSUIPC? Thanks!
