Hello All. i hope someone can shed some light on the problem i have. I use Ezdok and have programmed some buttons my Saitek yoke for views around the cockpit of the PMDG NGX. Can i use the same buttons Via LINDA to program certain autopilot functions. I have tried this without success. For instance, Button 2 on the yoke will look at the FMC however i also set it via LINDA to disconnect the auto-throttle. When this occurs i get both things happening but my view goes to the FMC. Is there an easy way to use both programs.

 

Kindest Regards

Pete

You need to use a shift button in LINDA so that you can assign two functions per joystick button. Then assign the unshifted joy button to the FS function in your example disconnect auto pilot and for the shifted button in LINDA you will have to send a key stroke or combo of key strokes, then in EZDOK assign those key strokes to the camera view you are interested in.

 

I tried it this way in the past just as a test and it works, but I think I had problems if FSX lost focus, the key strokes get sent to which ever program has focus instead, it was a long time ago when I tested, so I cant be sure how well it will work for daily use.

Well, firstly thanks for replying. Secondly, thanks for the advice. I'm off to try your advice now and will report back with my findings.
