nirgal76 Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 Hi peter, (and sorry for my poor english) First of all, a big thanks to you for your great addons and constant support on this forum. i have a small suggestion for a functionnality in fsuipc. we can assign a function to a button press, another one for a button release, and repeatition. ok. Is it possible to have in a future release the ability to assign a function in case of a "long press" on a button. ex : if i press the button 2 seconds, i want a different functionnality than if i do a normal (quick) button down/up. and i a stay more, the "long press" functionnality will be repeat eventually.. it's not a request but more a suggestion if others are interresting. it would be easy to implement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Dowson Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 Is it possible to have in a future release the ability to assign a function in case of a "long press" on a button. ex : if i press the button 2 seconds, i want a different functionnality than if i do a normal (quick) button down/up. and i a stay more, the "long press" functionnality will be repeat eventually. The problem then is how do I differentiate between a "long press" and someone just normally wanting to repeat the current "press and hold" programming? I don't see how you could have both. Incidentally, in the new releases just out the button repeat action has a delay (adjustable in the INI file), so you can make, say, one increment easily enough and hold for faster repeating. The default gives you something like 2/3rds second. 2 seconds is a long time pressing a button, especially if you are trying to fly and airplane at the same time! ;-) Regards Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how you could have both. i'm agree than you can not differenciate programmaticaly SO, an option in the button parameters, to choose between - repeating the action of the "short time" press or - doing another action on "long time" press (time ajustable) ? and in this case, if you hold more than the "long time", this is the "long time" action that is repeat 2 seconds is a long time pressing a button, especially if you are trying to fly and airplane at the same time! ;-) sure. A short key press is something like 3/10 or 4/10 of sec. a long can be 1 sec. ..ajustable by the user. and at ground where you have more time, may be it can be usefull but it was just an idea, nothing more ;) Thx for your interrest and your reply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You also realise, I assume, that the latter option would preclude having a separate assignment for the button release? In order to determine whether to do the short-time or the long-time action, the release would need to occur before the short-term action could occur. It is going to be very complicated for ordinary users to understand precisely what is going on, I think. What, exactly is the application for this you have in mind, please?
