Add extra functions to ministick switch axes / buttons

Postby pablete » Sat Nov 28, 2020 3:19

Hello,
I would like to add an extra keystroke pulsation to the swich axes / buttons of the ministick.
In a first press, I change from button to axes + F2 key, so I have the external view of the plane (f2 key) and I can move the external camera (axes).
In a second press, I change from axes to buttons + F1 key, so I have the cockpit view of the plane (f1 key) and I have a POV for other commands.
Then, toggle these two functions each time I press the button.

I hope I have explained myself correctly. Thnaks for the help!

Sorry, but I don't understand...With toggle I can set two buttons to run and alternate, but can I keep the axes/buttons change function?

Cyclic Switch is the toogle for two buttons

with Boolean you can make a Physical button

than you have two buttons for switcher

(sorry my english is not the best)

download my test1.cfg
unzip it in your VKB Device Config folder
Load it
click on Set
now the test1 settings are load and hot
make a hook in in Poll, so you see what Key is on Line4 Reg#2 activ when you push the Button (try all Buttons you have on your Gunfighter Mk.III)

you find the right Button you see how the test1.cfg will work

i hope my Gladiator cfg will work with Gunfighter Mk.III Joystick

Yes, I have loaded everything, what takes me time is to learn how to do it myself and integrate it into my configuration.
