Knobster and 3 position swtiches

#1 Post by jwalton49 »

Is there a way to disable Knobster for individual switches? I have a few 3 position switches and I don't want the knobster to work on them.

Yes. The solution is not to use a switch for these but up/dn buttons instead. I wish there were a way to exclude a switch if desired but unfortunately there is not.

You can also use a scroll wheel.

The real airplane has a 3 position toggle switch though, kind of hard to use up/down buttons.

The buttons dont have to appear as buttons, It is simply the coding operation behind the graphic

Hi,
Scroll wheel seems to pass over all heads. :)

It still appears as a switch so no difference, You either have invisible up/down buttons or an invisible button for each position. Your choice.
