GridNorth Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I'm returning to FSX after a lay off but I seem to be having a problem with the Spot and Locked Spot Views. They work if I access them from the drop down menu but when I assign a key nothing happens. I'm using the Steam addition and I have a registered version of FSUIPC.

llivaudais Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 can't imagine what might have happened but since F-key assignment to the spot view is set by default, perhaps if you just click the "restore default" button in the assignments window the normal function might be reset.

GridNorth Posted January 21, 2018 Author Share Posted January 21, 2018 I'm not sure it works like that. I think it resets ALL assignments to default and I would like to avoid having to do that. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

napamule2 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 You can use the 'A' key and the 'S' key to change views. If nothing works (F keys, etc) one combo that ALWAYS works, no matter what, is 'Shift+S'.

GridNorth Posted January 22, 2018 Author Share Posted January 22, 2018 I think I may have got to the bottom of this and other symptoms I've been experiencing. The lights on my Multi-Switch panel were not illuminating either. I believe it's to do with the Power Save settings on the USB ports. I've altered them and all appears fine now. I suspect it's Windows 10 upgrades that may have caused the problem in the first instance. Thanks all for your help. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
