Create mmosue macros

[Hossi]

MOVED FROM THE "USER CONTRIBUTIONS" REFERENCE SUB_FORUM SO IT CAN BE ANSWERED

 

Hi, Pete,
I have the following situation:
In P3DV4.5 and the latest FSLabs A320 version I want to switch the Packs1+2 via hardware.
A friend of mine wrote a program in the Linda program editor that works perfectly for his FSLabs A320. Unfortunately not with my FSLabs A320, although we both use the same P3D and the same FSLabs version.
The two keys, which I have planned for the packs, are recognized by Linda but they don't switch the packs. Therefore my friend advised me to use FSUIPC Creating a Mouse Macro to get the clicktype value. Unfortunately this doesn't work. I get as output Rectangle x24402800, Clicktype 10.
Press Tab to Test shows no reaction.
So I can't go on with Linda. My friend's Clicktype value is Rectangle x24402800, Clicktype 3. We both are using the  FSUIPC Version 5.132
Do you have any idea what I might be doing wrong? Is there a reason why this is done with my FSLabs doesn't work?

Best regards from Kiel in northern Germany

ciao

First, please always post support questions here, in the Support Forum, not in any of the Reference subforums (you posted in "User Contributions")

If it's the same rectangle ID from the same switch, then the Click Type should be the same. "3" just means a single click of the left button. Your 10 means you MOVED the mouse, not clicked it on the switch -- or at least moving the mouse was your last action in the rectangle area. So try again.

Are you sure that whatever aircraft add-on it is that it will support mouse macros? The mouse macro facility in FSUIPC4 was implemented by hacking directly into FSX or P3D code, and this process certainly doesn't work for everything. It wasn't until P3D4.1 that facilities were provided by L-M to allow them to be used for all aircraft.

By all means show me the .mcro file you made, for me to check, but please also check how other users of the same aircraft are managing. Check in User Contributions, above, and also in the FSLabs forums. Maybe FSLabs provides another way (eg additional custom controls) to do things.

Incidentally, you added your question to a seven month old thread. Not a good idea if you want others to help. best to start another rather than add to an old one.
