Hi Guys

Does anyone with NGXu 737 have an issue with Alt encoder? Mines is jumping in 500 increments, i e5500 - 6000 - 6500 instead of 100s?

I have set a joystick button with FSUIPC and confirmed it does work correctly with that, so must be something else, also confirmed to be working perfectly with NGX

Please Confirm you tryout Leftklick/Rightklick and also Mousewheel Down Mousewheel Up

Last week we got a nice report that "maby" this is a feature and not a bug.... We not be able to make FAST Inputs instead of NORMAL Inputs in PMDG as we know.
Look like a Mouseklick would at second input increase/decrase by factor x5 .... A Mouswheel would jut work x1 .

At the moment we test this..... If you like you can maby confirm that !
Good Luck !

Hi Pizman

I can confirm that PMDG mustve changed this on NGXu.

Mouse Wheel Up / Down increments x1
Mouse FLag Left / Right - Increments x5 (To set in the faster tab)

All works perfectly.

One last question ( to you or a other user of FSX and old PMDG 737,777 and 747 )

After swapping to P3D yesterday i not be able to test at the moment....

Does this logic also work for ALL older PMDG or only for the NGX"U" and/or other P3D versions ???
Good Luck !

Hi Pizman

the old NGX was setup with mouseflag to control the encoders, but I will check it tonight to see if changing it to Mouse Wheel has had any impact to the original. I don't think it will.

I know the mouse wheel works for the FSX and now NGXu, so I would assume it would be the same for the NGX. Will confirm tonight

Thank you Ridge...

But you missunderstand.
We all here use Mousewheel since years and i recommend that also for FSX 737, 747, 777 and so on in the past.

The question is.... Does Mouse-click Left and Right occure to this x5 Factor only in 737"u" for P3Dv4 OR does this Left Rightclick system also increas x5 in the old Aircrafts.

Sounds strange.... But i use Mousewheel from first day and never try clicks myself.... so i not know how this result in FSX
I realy feel bad.... Only two days after deleting my FSX and there is a Question i want to test confirm there. I relay need to install it on a old computer for testing again !
Good Luck !
