For some reason I cannot get MobiFligfht to generate a keypress command from the switch (or a button). To test it, I've chosen an Action Type - Key and selected key "A". In FSUIPC i've defined an "A" keypress to bring up an ATC window. It works from the keyboard, but not from MobiFlight.
If I use the same switch to generate the commands via offsets, it's working fine.
What's interesting- if I run MobiFlight with a cursor on the command name in the program window, the switch generates "A", as programmed, but it doesn't go to FSUIPC/ simulator.
I'm running ver. 7.10 with P3Dv4.5 and a registered FSUIPC ver. 6.0.10.

Hi

Please Confirm your Sim is Active Window !
MF send KEy presses only to the currently active Programm ( selected window) . In case FSUIPC is a DLL PlugIn of P3D it is included in the Programm..... Means P3D must be active.

Another Problem can be the ADMIN Mode..... We know for key Presses there are some issues if SIm and Mobiflight not in same mode. Both Admin or both Non-Admin but not mixed. ( I recommend Admin)

**********
At last.... FS2020 not allow Key Inputs at the moment.... But P3D should do.

Good Luck !
