gypsymoth Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 I use numpad 1-9 to navigate views round the cockpit in FS9 - 7 forward left & 9 forward right, for example. Will some kind person remind me how to set this up, please. I was going to help a new simmer I know to do this but I did this so long ago, I simply cannot remember now....... Many thanks. TW.

gypsymoth Posted May 13, 2022 Author Share Posted May 13, 2022 Yes, but do the numpad 1-9 buttons pick it up automatically or are they assigned to do it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiger1962 Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Those are all the default numpad assignments, except the VIEW_AUX ones which are clickspot activated in my FS9 Tiger Moth 2D panel only.

tgibson_new Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Yes, it's automatic if you do not change them to something else. Tom Gibson CalClassic Propliner Page: http://www.calclassic.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gypsymoth Posted May 13, 2022 Author Share Posted May 13, 2022 You lead me to ask, how are they changed ? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgibson_new Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 The key assignments to the various view commands are changed by: 1. Options/Controls/Assignments 2. View Commands from the drop down box. 3. Scroll down to the Look assignments. 4. Click on an assignment. 5. Click Change Assignment 6. Follow the instructions. The angle and zoom of those views are set in the panel.cfg file as listed in the post above.

napamule2 Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 For keypad view changes make sure NUM LOCK is not lit up ('On').
