Hi

After the last Win update  it is not possible to push the Joystick PTT Button during flying FSX. It only works when P2ATC is in the win focus, means that I have to click the P2ATC window for working the (Joystick-) PTT button.Strange, its seems that's only a problem with FSX .I run FSX in window mode and have after the issue rebuild the FSX cfg.

Any idea?

You could try unchecking the option to require P2A/SIM focus for buttons to work on the Btns tab of config.

Hi Dave., thx for the quick reply. No, it doesn't work for me, I run a Mulimonitor system with windows 10 20H2. The last  win updates are frame network. Both apps-FSX and P2ATC- are on different sceens, movingmap works fine only the joystick- and keyboardbuttons doesn't work if P2ATC is not in focus. I have now try it with X-plane in fullscreen, no problem all is fine, so I think it is not a issue with the OS. It is only a problem with FSX. Okay, it is an old sim, but before update it also works fine. Have I any other options?

Being on different screens should make no difference.  Being on different PCs might cause this behavior.

The only other thing I would check, since it's a new version of FSX, is the settings in FSX that relate to losing sound and pausing when FSX loses focus.  These shouldn't affect P2A's PTT button, but ya never know....

Maybe someone else running FSX can help.

Solved! I have changed the PTT Hotkey to a PTT Joystick button and it works. I also recognize that all keyboardletters which I have assigned to P2ATC are not available at all other apps  for example Internetexplorer if P2ATC is open. Also if  P2ATC is not in win focus, but open.

Anyway, thanks for help!

You'll need to run P2A as an administrator
