Turns out Notepad++ was set to UTF-8 encoding. Converting to ANSI did the trick. Thanks again!

It's a rough ride:) I can't get macros to work. I created a file A.mcro [Macros] 1=Blub 1.1=C65706,64 1.2=C65706,0 and the file appears in the MacroFiles section of the ini file. But that's it. I assumed that something like 'A Blub' shows up in the drop-down menus (the documention claims it does) but no dice. Again I must be missing something obvious...*sigh* Thanks in advance..Pia Kraft

Wow...it works thank you so much and well..outstanding support Pia Kraft

Thank you for the prompt reply. I did log and FSUIPC sends the event just fine... Only vanilla aircraft and nothing's going on..no ap..just starting position with engines turned off..no other simconnect processes running. Unplugged my stick, doesn't help I have the nagging feeling that might be a SE problem. Edit: in fact none of the 'set' events int the 'control surfaces' category work more than once. Others do though, i.e AP_ALT_VAR_SET_METRIC works, AILERON_TRIM_SET only works once

So I registered FSUIPC and tried the example from the user manual: Zero trim aka 'Elevator Trim Set 0'. What's happening: 1) change trim by any means (doesn't matter) 2) press the zero key --> works 3) repeat Step 1 4) repeat Step 2 --> doesn't work Then I programmed a stick button to do the same thing and now it's gets really wierd.. In step 4 the stick button works, so key/button works, key/key doesnt The reverse is also true: button/button -> non luck, button/key -> works I'm completely lost and would appreciate any help kind regards...Pia Kraft
