fsuipc7 beta key presses

[remery]

Hello,

Is the FSUIPC7 beta key assignement fonction now  operational with FS2020?

Regards,

Yes, this was added in the September 14th release. However, there are still various issues:
    - not all keys are recognised. See the SDK documentation (SimConnect -> Status of Input Events) to see which keys are currently supported
    - FSUIPC only receives the numpad keys when numlock is off, rather than when numlock is on. This has been reported to Asobo.
      I have also added a new ini parameter UseAlternativeNumpadKeyMapping :

... you can add the following ini parameter to the [General] section of your FSUIPC7.ini:
        UseAlternativeNumpadKeyMapping=Yes

Once this is added, FSUIPC7 will receive the numpad keys (but only with numlock off due to MSFS bug) via SimConnect, but then send them to itself as the un-numlocked keypad keys.

So, as discussed, using this you would assign to the non-numlocked numpad keys, and when using MSFS you need numlockk off for FSUIPC to react to these keys. They will also work when FSUIPC7 has the focus (with numlock off).

(from

) Of course, you can always activate logging for 'keys & buttons' to see which keys are recognized from MSFS/SimConnect.
