Back to old flap control for non-FSUPIC-users of Tinmou...

[Bob Scott 7,720]

I've just uploaded a V1.21 update patch, which includes internal hotkey support for F6/F7 key flap control and also adds an invisible clickspot over the flap gauge on the main panel for flap control.For those that were able to make the FSUIPC offset control assignments, I recommend continuing to control the flaps in that manner.Control of the flaps with a hardware axis (e.g. CH lever) is not currently supported.RegardsBob ScottATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-V L-300Santiago de Chile

Bob, the spoilers work perfectly, however pressing F6 and F7 the flaps start to move and then go back to where they were originally again. I can move them via clicking on the flap gauge like you have mentioned on the readme file, however still having issues with the F6 & F7 keys.Thanks,Bill

Bill,I had the same problem until I figured out how to update or patch the panel.732ADV file. Kinda tricky.At first I was deterred from opening the patch file because of a caution or warning of dire consequences if I did. Just ignore that and click away. There are a couple more dialog boxes to get thru before reaching the box with a blank file space. Here's where you have to browse down to the panel.732ADV file in the fsfsconv sub-directory. Highlight it and click on "Next". That should do it.Hope it works for you.Jack

Bill, one more thing......There's a gauge file, 732ADV.gau, buried in the patch which I manually moved to the Gauge directory. Jack

It is time for a BIG thank you towards the developers ;-)I am glad that my wish was heard - and that fast! unbelievable!!

The TinMouse gauges need to stay put in the aircraftfsfsconvpanel.B732ADV directory.RegardsBob ScottATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-V L-300Santiago de Chile

Check that there are no other control assignments assigned to the flaps...in particular no axis assignments (i.e. yoke levers) that might be conflicting.RegardsBob ScottATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-V L-300Santiago de Chile

Shouldn't be, I use the keyboard for the controls and havent touched FSUIPC.Thanks,Bill

Bob,For what it's worth,I left the .gau file in the fsfsconvpanel.B732ADV directory, and only copied it to Gauges. It has not caused me any problems.Thanks very much for the patch. It saved Tinmouse for me.Jack
