fsuipc + msfs not logging ch eclipse button presses? (trying to get the trim wheel working)

[theskyisthelimit]

For some reason if i enable button logging, i see nothing in fsuipc.. i do see axes.

I only know this because i was trying to get an old tweak working where if i added this to the ini it would fire it off rapidly to make the wheel on the yoke work better for elevator trim:  (side note, i dont recall what values like C65607 reference)

Anyone else have issues with loggin of the button presses.. i was just trying to make sure fsuipc was registering them, because the ini code below doesnt seem to have an effect.. The program in fsuipc itself does recognize the button press if i set those in the gui.

There are better ways of achieving this...if using a 'wheel' (which presumably has just one button in each direction). then you can use a lua to determine a 'fast' button press or a slow one, and use the trim position offset to increase/decrease by different amounts for a fast and a slow press...there are plenty of topics in this forum on how to do this.. C65607 is the control (C) 65607, which is ELEV_TRIM_UP.

BUT button logging is certainly working (and you probably also want to activate Event logging). Please show me/attach your FSUIPC7.log and FSUIPC7.ini files.
