Shift panels Mapping

Changing gears... In P3d v3, I've press the various (Mapped) shift keys and see that SHIFT + 1 produces no panel. Is that the desired result?
The other SHIFT + 2/3/4 work fine - no panel (Shift +1)...... Not sure if this was just a place setter for the other panels.

window_size= 1.000, 1.000

If logic follows:
Looks like no gauge/s were called on in
this area. Hence no panel

Yup that would do it. Its sparked an idea on how that might be simulated. Perhaps more to come later in the week

There was a WWI model that you could hand prop to start since none had electric starters using the mouse to pull the prop. I did a video showing that feature.
I'll see if I can find it.

I'd appreciate seeing that as that's along the lines i was thinking
 
Ok, to hand prop this model you click on the prop. Can be done externally also. Don't recall if random clicks was available if the first pull didn't catch.

I really never gave it much thought but yes if there is no content there would be no need for a window

​From memory Anthony Lynch's Tiger Moth also could be started by dragging the mouse on the propeller.

If you all are angling for a hand crank mod you can always use Cntrl+E. :playful:

Haha, not at all. Hand propping works but no one would prefer it to the electric starter. I surely don't see a reason to stimulate it.

And yeah, the plane in that video is an Ag Cat I think, definitely not a Stearman.
 
Just discovered my Christmas present. A little late but her's a big thank you ! Have a good and prosperous new year
