pilotjohn Posted September 11, 2020 Report Share Posted September 11, 2020 The camera events don't seem to work in MSFS. I was hoping to remap the POV on my Yoko+ with a combo, but even a simple test doesn't seem to work. Neither View Left nor Pan Left has any effect. Is this a known limitation? 64844438 [Buttons] 4=PD,38,C65671,0 64844438 FS Control Sent: Ctrl=65671, Param=0 PAN_LEFT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilotjohn Posted September 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2020 It seems possible to use the keyboard presses to simulate this, MSFS is able to interpret multi-key presses (e.g. ctrl+up+left) which allows me to set up key presses for some camera views (e.g. 45 degree left). Is this possible in FSUIPC? It seems I can only send one key and the modifier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilotjohn Posted September 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2020 It also seems the compound solution I was looking for is not possible because there's no "held" option for compounds (e.g. while POV is pressed and left send key X).

Pete One of the setups I was hoping for is a combination button of POV press and POV left for "quick view", but this would require "held" feature (since quick view springs back unless held).

Pete Dowson Posted September 12, 2020 Report Share Posted September 12, 2020 There are added FSUIPC controls you can assign which press a key and release separately. Check the additional FSUIPC controls section near the end of the Advanced guide. . You'd need a sequence of assignments, maybe in a macro or Lua plugin.

No, not possible in FSUIPC I'm afraid, you can only assign to one key + modifiers. However, I have added pass-through of multi-key assignments to to MSFS,for when FSUIPC7 has the keyboard focus.

pilotjohn Posted September 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2020 I found a solution that works fairly well. Instead of having a Pan Up-Left keyboard assignment in MSFS, and then mapping the UL POV to it, I instead send the pan left and pen up keys together for the UL POV. This ended up working better. Sending keys with modifiers is unreliable unless the modifiers and keys are mutually exclusive (e.g. sending ctrl-up for pan up and ctrl-shift-up for pan up left created all sorts of havoc).
