I would love the ability to assign a "true" graphic and a "false" graphic to use, so I can have my own button graphics - instead of using the generic toggle graphics.

The Generic Gauge works great, but it would be nice to have some control over what the "yellow" and the "red" range is (and maybe add a green range too? and white if you want to get fancy?)

My current use case is showing the current fuel left in the tank.

It shows "red" when the tank is full (and not always - probably a rounding error - see above). It should probably be green at the top end (easy fix: inverted colors checkbox).

I'd love to show a red value here when you are getting low on fuel, or a yellow value on warning. eg, here is the 172 fuel gauge in-cockpit:

Not sure if this is possible, but I ran across an instance for selecting the AP Nav Freq (1 or 2) where there does not appear to be a toggle value available, but there is a feedback sim variable for what is selected. So I guess it would be good to have a new type of button that sends a keyboard hotkey while also using a simulation variable for the feedback value. But the usefulness of this might be limited. It would only be helpful in situations where there is no toggle value, but a keyboard binding exists, and where a feedback value is available from the Sim.

Hi,

Is there a possibility to add multiple conditions (Feedback values) with a Generic Toggle button?

Example:

A320 3 landing gears and 3 feedback values (on three buttons, for visuals):

GEAR_LEFT_POSITION==100
GEAR_CENTER_POSITION==100
GEAR_RIGHT_POSITION==100

Then gear button with feedback value (the button uses GEAR_TOGGLE as Toggle Value):

GEAR_LEFT_POSITION==100 AND GEAR_CENTER_POSITION==100 AND GEAR_RIGHT_POSITION==100

This would make the gear button on (green) after all three gears are 100% extended.

This may now go into scripting, but seems multi (panel indicator) actions are present in airliners.

Yesterday I updated Flight-Tracker from version v0.12 -> v0.15. After that I cannot select any Flight Tracker Buttons from the menu in Stream deck software, it freezes immediately when I drag it in the keypad. All other choices work without problems (.Gamecapture, Hotkey, Open etc).
I uninstalled Stream Deck and deleted Elgato folder from %appdata%\Roaming, but it still doesn't work, even without any profiles.
I even tried to install fresh Stream Deck + v0.12 but not working.

If I load previous profile I can use those buttons ingame, I just can't add more or edit them.

Any idea what to try next?
flightstreamdeck20201117.log

At some point mid flight, usually while adjusting altitude up or down the message pops up saying... and it won’t go away. It is annoying. What is causing this?

It would be great to be able to disable the Text overlay on the prebuilt buttons. I am running into all kinds of limitations for buttons like FLC, VS, VNAV, and especially ALT that I want to have an on off button for but the stock commands and/or feedback dont work.

Is there a way to have these labels sized properly when using 144x144 images? Currently, it seems they don't scale. They're stuck on the upper half, very tiny, although they're centered properly. I'll try to include a photo next time I am able to. Whenever I use 72x72 images on the Steam Deck XL, the buttons are horribly blurry, hence I use 144px. Cheers!

Found this project mentioned on the official MSFS discord. Getting the above error when I try to reload FlightStreamDeck.AddOn.csproj (solution explorer says "(load failed)". Full output msg is as follows

\Flight-Tracker-StreamDeck-master\FlightStreamDeck.AddOn\FlightStreamDeck.AddOn.csproj : error : Project file is incomplete. Expected imports are missing.

only a 1 or 2?
or ap_NAV_SELECT_SET? _1 __1?

in your Info 0.16 you write ab?

Pls if you can give us a complete command for the NAV_SELECT_SET

Many thx for your fast change

I can't see a way to do it with the current variables but thought I might be missing something.

I would love a Master Warning/Master Caution button

Thanks for everything you have done! Loving the plugin!

I entered feedback value of GENERAL ENG MASTER ALTERNATOR:1, and similar, and anything with an index in it doesn't seem to report correctly.

Similarly, when dealing with gauges, anything with an index doesn't work. For example, GENERAL ENG MIXTURE LEVER POSITION:1

Some actions take some time, e.g. lowering the landing gear. It would be nice to be able to show that. In case of the landing gear (just as in real life) during transition, the light are red. Green when gear is down, off (black) when gear is up, and red during transition.

My proposal is to add a toggle button that supports a transition state.
Users should be able to specify a Value for the On state, and a Value for the Off state.
In addition, they should be able to specify 3 icons, one for the On state, one for the Off state, and one for the Transition state.
The transition icon is then shown when the value is not On or Off.

Implementation could be based on the existing Generic Toggle Button with 2 extra entries in the property inspector: 1 for an Off value, and one specification of the Transition icon.

An obvious use would be a landing gear button.

Thank you for considering this request.

(with v0.5)

In the C172, I'm trying to get a Generic Toggle Button to light up if the fuel selector is set to both. This should be FUEL TANK SELECTOR:1==16 as indicated in the example docs, but it doesn't seem to be working - nor can I get it to work with any other value than 16. 0 works but I'm guessing this is a default/null return.

I tried to "debug" using a gauge and setting the display value to FUEL TANK SELECTOR:1 but it is always reporting zero as well. I'm not sure if gauges are set up to display these things. I also tried to output the value in the "display value" field of the generic button but no luck there.

I also tried GENERAL ENG FUEL VALVE:1 and RECIP ENG TANK SELECTOR:1 but I'm not getting any results from these either.

From all aspects it seems like these should work - considering you put examples in the documentation though, maybe I just have the setup wrong. Can you show me how you did it there?

My current setup:

Hi, I'm starting to implement a profile for the A320.

The A320 has an AP mode for speed. I think (but not sure) that it may be activated by AP_PANEL_SPEED_HOLD_TOGGLE and it is likely adjusted by AP_SPD_VAR_INC and AP_SPD_VAR_DEC.

Is it possible to add these options to the Preset Toggle Button and the Increase/Decrease

Hi,

Since the last update (0.8) I get a message in MSFS stating "Connected to stream deck plugin" whenever I press a button.

I know this has (probably) nothing to do with the plugin, but maybe other people have this issue too.

Does anyone know where I can turn this message off.

Nav/com does not work with a320 (fs2020)
Only Squawk working

Sometimes when I load a profile page (eg: swap to my engine readout stack) and don't hit any buttons, flight sim will enter an infinite loop and streamdeck needs to be closed for several minutes, then re-opened.

I think this is because of all of the polling of current state information to populate button states - the simconnect interface gets overwhelemd? Guessing here.

I'm wondering, if that is the problem, if it is possible to "queue" requests for information and trickle them out at a metered rate? Hopefully this will prevent the crashes in the future.

I thought this setup would be pretty clever;

Putting FUEL TANK LEFT MAIN QUANTITY as the display value, and FUEL TANK LEFT MAIN CAPACITY as the max value, to auto-determine the range. Would be great if the min/max values could accept variables like this!

I'm using a Generic Toggle Button to show the state of the "FUEL CUTOFF" valve in the C172. This is great with:

Toggle: TOGGLE_FUEL_VALVE_ENG1
Feedback: GENERAL ENG FUEL VALVE:1

but the button lights up when the fuel cutoff is false. This is a semantic problem probably present across several aircraft that just label their layouts differently (the same button is "fuel flow" on one plane and "fuel cutoff" on another plane).

To that end, it would be nice to have a simple "invert bool" checkbox on the feedback value for all generic toggle buttons.

nb; this would also be solved by evaluation, though this would be easier than a custom parser. ;) feel free to mark as a duplicate and close if this will do the trick: #9

On the A320 Airbus, each Autopilot Mode (SPD, HDG, ALT, VS) has two states: managed mode (push the dial in) and select mode (pull the dial out).

According to the thread below, there are four events that can be used to select these modes... sending a "2" puts it in managed mode, a "1" in select mode

HEADING_SLOT_INDEX_SET
SPEED_SLOT_INDEX_SET
ALTITUDE_SLOT_INDEX_SET
VS_SLOT_INDEX_SET

https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/airbus-neo-is-there-a-binding-to-switch-between-managed-and-selected-modes/244977

I guess there's two ways to implement this... allow us to pass a parameter on a generic toggle button. OR, implement a new button type for this that sends a "1" on a simple press (simulating pulling the button) and a "2" when holding (simulating pushing the button).

Can you please implement one of these - I'll take whatever is easier. But unless I can get this working, the stream deck is useless for A320 AP functions.

First thank you very much!!!!!
Can you support PMDG sdk?

Hello guys,

I can't find the APU BLEED function.
I must have problems with my glasses;)

hello,

Is it possible to programme a button to trigger two events with one button press?

On the X-cub the the Pulse/Stby switch triggers LANDING_LIGHTS_TOGGLE and TOGGLE_RECOGNITION_LIGHTS events

Kev

It would be great if we could choose between metric and imperial units for various things, or even convert from liquid volume to weight. Largely depends on the aircraft type.

Description of the issue & expected behavior
My custom gauges are frequently lagging by 10-15 seconds. Ex: if I am accelerating from 100 knots to 150 knots, my indicators will lag and be 15 seconds behind.

Stream Deck Plugin and MSFS version
Flight Tracker Streamdeck 0.10
MSFS 2020, 1.9.5.0

Example of gauges:
AIRSPEED_INDICATED
PLANE_ALTITUDE
VERTICAL_SPEED

Steps to reproduce the issue

1. Start flying in FS2020 with the Streamdeck plugin enabled
2. Custom gauges will lag 10-15 seconds

Hello, I looked in the issues for a solution but unfortunately I couldn't find anything.

The pluggin is installed well, the profile is imported well but the AP page is practically unusable.

Can anyone help me ?

My COM and NAV buttons are no longer displaying the frequencies as of v0.9, Buttons just say "NAV1" or "COM1" with no other data showing.

The Generic Toggle Button is great for 90% of what I want to do, but I have a few buttons that I want to be able to "hold down" and have the event repeat. For example, I use the MIXTURE_INCR and MIXTURE_DECR events to lean/rich the mixture in my aircraft.

Using the Generic Toggle Button without a feedback or display value works fine, as long as you keep tapping the button. I would like the event to continue triggering when the button is held down.

I believe this is similar to the current examples components, eg: AP Heading Increase , but there is no generic version of that layout.

Hi all,
is it just me or how can I enter the last digit on the COM/NAV screen?
I.e. I want to enter 120.175 as frequency but I cannot enter the "5", so MSFS is not accepting it as the right frequency.

Hello,

Its possible if you can Import the adf1_radio_swap

and maybe the vor1 and vor2 dec and Inc

and the adf Inc and dec

long press 100 and short press 10 on adf

and on vor1 Version short press dec 1 and long press 10 and with vor2 the same

Many thx for fast import the nav select variable

I'm looking at FUEL TANK SELECTOR:1 which reports a value back depending on the currently selected element.

I would love to be able to enter FUEL TANK SELECTOR:1==16 or something similar to convert the reported value to a bool (so we can utilize the green-light on the button).

SPOILERS HANDLE POSITION
SPOILERS LEFT POSITION
SPOILERS RIGHT POSITION

don't seem to be available to set conditions with-- can these be added?

I'm trying to use the "Generic Gauge" to show my current throttle position in the Cub Crafter X.

I add a Generic Gauge component, and I leave all the fields blank/default except the Display Value field. I set this to GENERAL ENG THROTTLE LEVER POSITION:1 , which is the documented method for pulling this value. The value always reports as zero (and I get the ! warning indicator on the device whenever the profile loads, which I assume is some sort of error state).

I've also tried different formats - ... POSITION 1 and ... POSITION: 1 and ... POSITION 1 (two spaces) etc. to try and match the enum listed in the source, but I'm not seeing any results.

In case it was only mapped to the generic toggle button, I also tried sliding a Generic Toggle Button into my layout. I left all the fields blank/default, except the Display Value - this always appears blank and never populates with a value.

Interestingly, if I set the display value on the Generic Toggle Button to specifically ... POSITION: 1 (with a colon and a space before the one) the green light shows up on the toggle button.

FWIW I'm seeing similar results for the mixture and propeller pitch levers.

Recently a commit was made that adds GENERAL ENG ANTI ICE POSITION:index which is great for anti-ice solutions that have sliders (eg: plunger-pull carb heat), but there is also an engine anti-ice switch component that gives feedback on the variable ENG ANTI ICE:index. Can we get this added as well?

Hello,

I downloaded the source code as I want to do some modifications of the fonts.

I updated 'ImageLogic.cs' and when I deployed by launching 'deploy.bat;', I can see the folder being created under '%appdata%\Elgato\StreamDeck\Plugins' (I had previously removed the folder I already had).

However, after I open Streak Deck app, I cannot see Flight Tracker actions anymore.
Could you please let me know if I am missing a step?

Thanks!

Vicente

Have any where the keybind for that?

Many thx for help

Is there some way to check for equality against a non-boolean variable in the "Feedback value" field?

For example, while I am waiting for my Honeycomb Bravo (which will give me a proper flaps lever), I have mapped the following toggles in a folder on my Stream Deck:

• FLAPS_UP
• FLAPS_1
• FLAPS_2
• FLAPS_3
• FLAPS_DOWN

These map to the numerical values 0-4 in the FLAPS HANDLE INDEX variable.

So for, say, FLAPS_2, I would like it to show the green "active" indicator when FLAPS HANDLE INDEX == 2, but I can’t figure out a way to put such an expression in the "Feedback value" field.

Unlike other images, the true/false icons don't save with the profile - so sharing a custom profile just reverts to the defaults again.

Is it possible to (a) bake the image data directly into the profile save, or
(b) document where the images should be stored relative to the profile to still be accessed (rather than absolute paths)?

I was able to get some buttons changed to use the new events for the Airbus, but then Stream Deck configuration app is now crashing any time I try to click a Flight Track plugin related button to view or edit the config for that button. Profile attached.

Hi guys, would it be possible to add a toggle for vertical speed hold? I took a look into flightsim.exe and may found some event-ids for vertical speed:

AP_VS_HOLD
AP_VS_ON
AP_VS_OFF
AP_VS_SET

I don't exactly know if this was the right place to look for it but all the other known ids can be found there too.

Hello,
I can't find a way to get the feedback value from the master engine alternator. None of the simulation variables work to tell me if the alternator in on or off.

Rather than using the numpad-style transponder interface, I am building my own "classic" style transponder increment/decrement interface.

This works well, but I'm trying to fill the top row with the actual transponder numbers for the 1000, 100, 10, and 1 values as necessary.

TRANSPONDER CODE:index is the variable call to get the full number (which I tried just filling in as a "display value" on a generic toggle button -- perhaps this is an individual bug) but this didn't work. It would be nice to have a bit of additional processing to pull out the individual numbers.

Is it possible to add a preset toggle button for Auto Pilot FLC (Flight Level Change) mode? I looked through the toggle values and simulation variables and couldn't see anything that looked applicable.

PS. Thank you very much for this great add-on... I was doing AP modes on my Stream Deck by simply using keyboard commands but the mode toggles were often out of sync with the aircraft AP state. This is much better!
