Niner_Mike Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Dear Pete, I am trying to control the view selection with an external program driving FS through your FSUIPC. In particular I wish to read which view has the focus in FS, and then select the view that I want to operate. FS has them numbered starting from 00 apparantly. Creating new views, closing them, changing view mode, selecting next view and panning etc works fine through commands into offset 0x3110. Just reading which view number has the focus would help me forward. Any suggestions? Thanks Niner Mike PS: I bought a FSUIPC registration key with pride!

Pete Dowson Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 I am trying to control the view selection with an external program driving FS through your FSUIPC. In particular I wish to read which view has the focus in FS, and then select the view that I want to operate. FS has them numbered starting from 00 apparantly. Does it? I thought they only had names. However, I've no real way of getting information on which has focus other than the current view mode TYPE in offset 8320. Will that do?

Niner_Mike Posted June 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Thanks for your very fast reply, Pete. Offset 8320 does a fine job for my application, but I am also seeking to control the 'currently selected window'. Maybe 'window' is a better term then 'view' in my original question. It indeed seems to me that the 'windows' are numbered in FS starting from 00. Any ideas on controlling the windows? Thanks! Niner_Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niner_Mike Posted June 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Hi Pete, While I am asking... any more info or update on offset 8300: 8300 256 Area in FS2002 and FS2004 reporting and controlling assorted views. Details of those values known follow. This information has been supplied by Matthias Neusinger. Maybe that could help me? Thanks ! Niner Mike.

Pete Dowson Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Any ideas on controlling the windows? In what way? You can control the zoom at least. Probably other things using the discoveries by Matthias Neusinger which were added to FSUIPC recently. Have you checked? Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Dowson Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 While I am asking... any more info or update on offset 8300:Maybe that could help me? Isn't that where I referred you in the fist place? ("...the current view mode TYPE in offset 8320."). Remember? All I know is written in the documentation. And I only know that because Matthias told me. Regards, Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niner_Mike Posted June 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Hi Pete, Ahof course... I misread the 256 bytes from offset 8300 onwards. Now I see that Matthias' discoveries stretch all the way to 83FF, and are documented in your doc. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Do you happen to know how I can reach Matthias directly? My email is steven_luys[at]yahoo.com. In the meanwhile, I'll try some undocumented offsets, you never know I stumble across my desired functionality.... Thanks for providing me these insights, Pete!

Pete Dowson Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Do you happen to know how I can reach Matthias directly? Well I just googled his name and came up with it in lots of places -- regarding airliner photographs. Try for instance http://www.airliners.net/message/index.main?id=1049029&photographer=Matthias%20Neusinger Regards, Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
