PMDG Registers "Double" Middle Mouse Click with ChasePlane

Featured Replies

An odd behavior I've noticed on the NGX, 777, and 747: with ChasePlane open/active, using the middle mouse button to turn on landing lights seems to register as a double click, meaning the lights toggle on then immediately off.

 

Turning off ChasePlane resolves this behavior.  Currently have all middle mouse button features in ChasePlane turned off though.  Swapping hardware mice has no effect either.

 

Anyone else see this or have any thoughts?

Strange issue, when did you start noticing it?

Earlier this year, a few months back.  But isolated it to ChasePlane today.

Here's what I'm describing.  First toggle (which toggles back to off) is with ChasePlane open.  Second toggle (successful) is with ChasePlane closed.

Are you having the issue when all the toggles are enabled?

No, the switches turn on but the camera view pans slightly and pulls up the radial menu once I middle click..

How long do you keep the middle button pressed before releasing it? It should be a tap and if it's more than 300ms it will cause the selector to show up.

Purely a momentary click and release.

 

If the 300 ms is cusotmizeable to increase the delay, I suppose that’s one workaround to try.  However, I’d prefer to be able to use the middle mouse to toggle switches without any of the middle mouse button options enabled in ChasePlane.
