Keypress on FSX load

[aburley]

Hi Guys, real quick question here:

When i press Fly Now and FSX starts, can i set FSUIPC to fire a keyboard command automatically everytime?

There are a couple of things i need to do, but for example, pressing the Alt key for 2 seconds will hide the FSX menu at the top of the screen.

How would this be done in FSUIPC?

Thanks! :)

Check the "InitialButton" parameter described in the Advanced User's guide. You can then have a macro instigated by that button which sends your keystrokes.

If you want to do timed events like that you'll need to have a Lua plug-in (ipcReady.lua is run when FSUIPC is ready to fly).
