Hello, I registered FSUIPC yesterday in hopes to program the mouse macro for the A/T engage on the MCP. After going through the step by step process I realized that it was a no go. After some reading I found that Mr. Dowson states that the mouse macro works on some .gau's but not all instruments. Sadly, it doesn't on the MCP instrument. So seeing that it is an XML gauge, and that I have done XML gauges in the past, I decided to investigate a workaround.

The good news is that after tinkering with it till 1AM last night I managed to get it to work! Now I can use my Joystick to arm/disarm the A/T (as I wanted to do) instead of using the mouse. The solution involved the creation of a new XML gauge. I am however still working on it to ensure that it operates as I want it to.

My main design criteria is to make it WITHOUT modifying the original panel gauge from CS. This so that other users can benefit from the workaround without having to mod their 757 install. So far I am 80% complete on that.

If there is interest in this, maybe we can get other functions worked out as well. Let me know.

I will keep you posted on the progress, I expect it to be ready before the end of the week. : )
