Trying to assign screenshot command to a controller button.

[retnavycpo]

Previous flight sims were easy when it came to assigning the screenshot command to a controller button.  Not so, with MSFS (or at least I haven't found a way).  I have tried several keybind programs, but no luck.  I am hoping that FSUIPC7 is capable of doing this, but when I press the Print Screen button, FSUIP7 does not detect it.  Any help here?  Pete

FSUIPC7 does not detect the print screen button. If it did, what would you assign it to?
The 'Print Screen' hot-key is a windows function, nothing to do with FSUIPC or MSFS.

Later: sorry, you want to assign a button to the print-screen key....
I'm not sure if this would work, but you could try first assigning the button to any other key, and then edit your FSUIPC7.ini file and change the key code to the print-screen key code (44) - see the Advanced User manual for the key assignment definitions. Then reload the ini.
