Switch views through FSUIPC

[jordi]

Hi Pete,

Is it posible to switch FS views (tower view, aerial view,...) through FSUIPC? I haven't found any offset for this purpose.

To switch views in FS you can press 'S', then I could try to send a key press using FSUIPC, but I don't know if this is posible or if I need WideClient.

What do you think and where I can start?

Thanks again,

Jordi

In that case it is probably only possible through offset 3110, where you can send any FS control and most of the add-on FSUIPC ones too.

Well you can send FS keypresses via offset 3200, but I really wouldn't recommend that when all FS keypresses are re-assignable (i.e. 'S' may not be assigned that way), and they are all available as controls in any case.

There's a complete list of FS2004 controls included in the FSUIPC.ZIP. You need the numeric equivalent. I think 'S' is normally assigned to "VIEW_MODE". You can find out via the FS CFG file -- assignments are in the [KEYBOARD_MAIN] section.

Pete

Thanks Pete,

Your answer solved my question.

I have used offset 3110 with Control Number for VIEW_MODE of your List Of FS2004 Controls.pdf and it worked as I expected.

Thanks a lot for your quick answer,
