Pete Dowson Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 Is it possible to assign a command (e.g. open/close bombdoors) which only reacts on a mouse click to a button of my CH Throttle Quadrant :?: Maybe, maybe not. Each such case is different. Here are some pointers: 1. Maybe it uses a control you can actually assign to. Enable Event logging in FSUIPC (one check mark in left-hand side of FSUIPC's Logging tab), then operate the facility with the mouse and look in the FSUIPC Log file (in the Modules folder) to see what it caught, if anything. 2. Try using the mouse macro facility, described in the FSUIPC User Guide. If that works you are all set. 3. Finally, there's a chance that it may operate using local panel variables ("Lvars"). If it is FSX you are using, then check out the very latest FSX version of FSUIPC in the Updates Announcement above. It contains facilities for listing Lvars so you can work out Macros for assigning them. Sorry, but the last one isn't provided for FS9 or before.

Dick64 Posted February 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 Hi Pete, thanks! The Log File has not recorded this mouse command in FS 2004. So this function is obviously not available. Regards Dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay -- that was a long shot in any case. What about the mouse macro option? Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick64 Posted February 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 Hi Pete, no success with option 2 either. Pressing the TAB (|<=/=>|) key on the keyboard gave no respond. Regards, Dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Dowson Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 no success with option 2 either. Pressing the TAB (|<=/=>|) key on the keyboard gave no respond. If you enable Button & Key logging in the FSUIPC Logging page, the Log file might say why. I assume all this is with FS9 or before, not FSX? If FSX you could try listing the Lvars, it might be manipulable via one of those. I don't support that facility before FSX though. The only other alternative is to use Luciano Napolitano's "Key2Mouse" program. Regards Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
