Hi, I'd like to share my config that I prepared for PMDG 737 NGX. I don't want to write too much, so I'll just mention a few tricks I used: - "knob" keys (the ones with grey circles) are operated by left/right arrows, so for ex. you choose HDG and then turn the HDG knob left or right with the arrows...

There you go, complete .lst file with all PMDG NGX events ready to be used in scripts like in this example:

Glad you got it. I will post my full keyboard config soon, maybe you'll find some more hints.

Hi, sorry for the delay, I was buried with my own cockpit project:-) The .lst file is coming, just give me a few days.

That works, thanks!
When I have some more time I will send you the .lst file with all the PMDG events defined.

My point is that you can exactly identify the event by it's friendly name, but try to do that by the number without looking in the SDK? Not everyone is familiar with the SDK and it's internals (for each event you need to do some calculation and stuff). That will make the programming much easier for ...

As you know having the action for the key scripted (on the "Scripted" tab) gives you much more flexibility and functionality that you can build on a single key action. Especially for such mature aircraft like PMDG 737NGX. Adding these events and ability to use them in scripts will make the scripting...

Ok Petr, We're almost there. It actually works on the "Predefined" tab at the "Send Simconnect Event (FSX)" section. But what I meant is to launch a custom event from the "Scripted" tab, like this: HIDMacros.FSXEvent PMDG_EVT_MCP_FD_SWITCH_L, MOUSE_FLAG_LEFTSINGLE Here's the debug from it: 22:26:12....

Petr,

Thanks for checking this. I have the event on the list too, however it doesn't work. Thanks for the tip with the debug, I'll check it in the evening, but I think that the only difference will be #70010 vs. "#70010".

Maybe you could add an "if" when the line in .lst file starts with # you would treat it as a custom event and execute exactly as in my example above, and otherwise treat it like the built in FSX event?
