I have a problem entering Input devices.

I can create my MEGA2560 module correctly. I can use the Output Wizard to
create a Display and link it to FSUIPC and have it work correctly for radio
frequency displays.

The problem arises when trying to create an Encoder input to allow me
to adjust the frequencies. I can create the device in the main input screen.
However, when I click on "edit", the InputConfigWizard comes up and on
the selection drop-down to choose my Module, the drop-down menu is
half hidden behind the empty selection box. Where ever I try to click I
am unable to select my module. So at the moment, I am unable to
configure any input devices. The diagnostics give the following error:

"displayArcazeSerialComboBox_SelectedIndexChanged : Some Exception occurredIndex was outside the bounds of the array"

This problem seems to be generally on the displays of drop-down boxes.

Is this a bug? Please help.

In addition, the space in the boxes on the screen are also mostly too small to
adequately show information. This is especially a problem when trying to edit
calculations in the box for Conditionals.

Thanks, Jim.

Hi.

I haven´t the same problem but sometimes i got graphic issues too....

On my system the problem happend if i use Mobiflight On top of FSX Window.... If i run FSX in Window mode and minimize it then i´m not get problems. Normaly i use Mobiflight on my second or third screen and so the problem never come.

Please get shure you run MF as Admin and test if problem still exist if only Mobiflight is on screen ( No other tab opend on same screen)

Please report experience.
Good Luck !

Hi Nachricht,

your idea seems to work. I opened MF as administrator and the drop-down menus are now working OK.

I now only have a small problem on the main page where the box for the serial number of the board selected is too small for the number to fit. Otherwise, so far, I am now able to enter configurations.

Thanks for the tip.

Jim.

Thats normal....

You can change width of this by klicking in top line. Try to maxmise Mobiflight window and then change width as needed.
Good Luck !
