• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Hi guys,

I am looking into converting this 2D gauge code for use as a 3D part script for one of my projects and I need to know if the mouse section of this script is usable for an FSX modeldef script or if it's rewritten a different way. Any help is appreciated.

Code: 
<Gauge Name="start/crank" Version="1.0">
   <Element>
      <Select>
         <Value>(L:stcr switch,enum)</Value>
         <Case Value="0">
            <Image Name="ver_off.bmp"/>
         </Case>
         <Case Value="1">
            <Image Name="ver_up.bmp"/>
         </Case>
         <Case Value="2">
            <Image Name="ver_down.bmp"/>
         </Case>
      </Select>
   </Element>
   <Mouse>
      <Cursor Type="Hand"/>
      <Click>(L:stcr switch,enum) ++ d 2 &gt; if{ 0 } (&gt;L:stcr switch,enum)</Click>
      <Tooltip ID="">Starting/Cranking switch</Tooltip>
   </Mouse>

</Gauge>
 
Code: 
    <MouseRect>
        <Cursor>Hand</Cursor>
        <TooltipText>Starting/Cranking switch</TooltipText>
        <MouseFlags>LeftSingle+RightSingle</MouseFlags>
        <CallbackCode>          
          (L:stcr switch,enum) ++ d 2 &gt; if{ 0 } (&gt;L:stcr switch,enum)
        </CallbackCode>
    </MouseRect>

The above should help you. I think to mirror exactly the action of the 2D gauge you would only need the LeftSingle in the MouseFlags and remove the +RightSingle.

I put the mouserect after the end of the Animation so that is after </Animation> and , of course, before the end of the </PartInfo>
