August 1, 200916 yr hi,One of my favourite aircraft is A2A's B377. It comes with a very handy pop up window which allows you to select which engine (s) you want to control with your single throttle lever. It works very well indeed and I am wondering if such gauge is available for any aircraft. If not it is a pity that no one has ever designed one.

If not it is a pity that no one has ever designed one.E x , where x is the engine you want to select, is a standard MSFS command.You can also do multiples E12, E34. E1234 for example.Some panels have poorly designed gauges, however, that preventthose multi-keystroke commands from executing. Paul
August 2, 200916 yr Author hi,I knew that command but had not been using it because it did not seem to work well ( or I misused it...) as you mention it. I have tried it with default aircraft and it works though I perfer the A2A gauge which is handier especially for four engine aircraft. Thank you for your reply My gallery: http://s1075.photobucket.com/albums/w430/yankeegolf/
August 2, 200916 yr Hi,E + position number doesn't work properly within FS9.To fix this bug you have to download&install the file RCBSE-10.zip where you'll find the gauge SELECTCORRECT.XML by Rob Barendregt.Cheers Gianfranco
August 2, 200916 yr Commercial Member It works fine for me in FS9... how odd. :( Ed Wilson Mindstar AviationMy Playland - I69
August 2, 200916 yr Maybe you use only default planes.Whether or not you use FSUIPC can make a big difference, too.Cheers,Glenn
August 3, 200916 yr Commercial Member I use addon aircraft.If the default aircraft work without issue, it's not an FS9 bug. Ed Wilson Mindstar AviationMy Playland - I69
August 3, 200916 yr Moderator Hi,E + position number doesn't work properly within FS9.To fix this bug you have to download&install the file RCBSE-10.zip where you'll find the gauge SELECTCORRECT.XML by Rob Barendregt.Cheers GianfrancoThe ONLY time it won't work is when there is at least ONE badly coded gauge, or poorly scripted XML "gauge." :( Anytime any key_event is being continuously fired, it will cause a race condition and block any of the _SELECT key_events from being processed.Both FSUIPC and Rob's gauge are at best "bandaids" to mitigate the bleeding... They are not actually finding and fixing the bad code... :( Fr. Bill AOPA Member: 07141481 AARP Member: 3209010556 Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
August 3, 200916 yr Hi,You can use Doug Dawson's:"event_logger.zip"Here in the library.It will find the offending K-Events (fs9), after which you can correct the wrong synthax.Jan Jan "Beatus ille qui procul negotiis..."
