Multimedia keyboard usage

Featured Replies

I have just purchased a multimedia keyboard (DELL) that has a rotating knob to adjust the sound volume. I would like to use this knob in FS and assign to Increase/Decrease selection. Using the FS key assignment, it doesn't work because the knob is not "seen" as a key. The other multimedia keys (stop, play/pause, prev, next, ...) work fine and can be assigned, but not the rotating knob.If someone could make this work, I would be glad to share the experience...Thanks for any help !!Eric

I never thought about using the wheel myself, although I've had my wireless Logitech keyboard for ages. Just for the heck of it I tried to assign the rotating wheel to something, and noticed that rotating it counterclockwise registered as "C" while clockwise registered as "B".I assigned them to autopilot heading bug increase / decrease, and they worked in-game. It might be useful if the sound volume didn't also change when I rotated the disc, but as it stands I'll rather control just the sound volume with it :)Atleast you know it works (sort of) on some keyboards!
