Virtual Key Press to MSFS on Both Up and Down of Button

Featured Replies

I'm evaluating Axis and Ohs as a replacement for FSUIPC.

I have a setup where pressing a joystick button down sends a virtual key press to MSFS (only), and another one on button up.

Can this be done with Axis and Ohs?

I can see the option to send a virtual key press, but it's not separate for up and down (and appears to be a general key press, not MSFS only).

You would do that with scripts. You will want to send additional FOCUS commands anyway, to make sure that the virtual keypress is going to the app that should receive it.

Basically I'm looking to use both key down and up to toggle the ATC window. This way it "acts" like a push to talk button for ATC. In addition, when this button is pressed, other buttons (e.g. my hat switch), can be used to send key press 1-8. It sounds like this would all have to be scripted, correct?
