FSUIPC+Keys+Control sent when ....

[Günter Mangold]

Hello

in the dropdown list of "Control sent when key pressed"

i selected "Aileron center" and assigned it to x-key.

However no response in FS9

Then i went through FS9 Options->Controls->Assignments->

ailerons & rudder center and assigned to x-key.

Again no response.

Other funktions then ailerons&rudder center are assignable to

various keys in FS9.

How to DELETE a key-assignment in FSUIPC?

Please help.

What sort of response are you expecting? If you have joystick inputs for aileron and rudder I should think they would override these controls in any case.

To be honest, I've never tried or used those controls. FSUIPC just gets the list from FS, so it varies from FS version to FS version in any case. Whether those are really programmed to do anything in FS I do not know. I do know some controls don't work, some aren't even hooked up inside FS -- they are either left-overs from older versions which they forgot to delete, or they were planned and never made the final cut.

How to DELETE a key-assignment in FSUIPC?

Do ALT M F to get the FSUIPC options screen up, go to the Keys page, and look at the right-hand side. Find the keypress you want to delete by pressing "previous" or "next" till you see its details displayed, then click the "Delete this entry" button. OK out of it.

If you check, this is actually explained in the Keys section of the User Guide, thus:

The review and deletion facility forms the right-hand part of the options page. Here you can simply scan through all your FSUIPC assignments (not those made in FS’s dialogue or CFG file). The list is shown in the order they appear in your FSUIPC.INI file, and cycles back to the beginning at the end and vice versa. You can delete any assignment here by using the Delete this entry button.

Danke Pete, for the fast reply.

This was the solution!

With dark red head i must admit having completely overseen the

right-hand window side.

Everything works normal again.

BTW i'm operating FS9 completely from notebook keypad+touchpad,

no joystick. Should say, i'm somewhat odd, see only half the light and

half the FSUIPC window;-)
