Mouse macro

[Jan Kremmel]

hello, i use the first time FSUIPC. i read the manuel and watched you tube videos. I looks quit easy. but in real time the mouse macro function is not working on my pc. i tryed it with different airplanes (standard an add on airplanes) but nothing.

if i push a button the additional text on the top of the screen doesn't appear. i use FSX, Windows 7, FSUIPC... thanks for each tipp. jan

It won't work on most parts of all of the default FS aircraft because Microsoft did not follow their C/C++ SDK rules in making their gauges. And most new FSX aircraft add-ons use XML gauges (but not all -- some PMDG aircraft being major exceptions). Those gauges may be suitable for L:Var manipulation ("Local Variables") but certainly not mouse macros.

if i push a button the additional text on the top of the screen doesn't appear.

That is exactly what you expect if the mouse location you click is not supported by the standard C/C++ gauge table structures.
