Thanks for that, David. It will save Ben looking for a solution that doesn't exist. The 1-11 is lovely to fly in Prepar3d and those switches are not needed quickly so can be easily accessed by toggling the panels.

Re: DM's Comet and P3D
David's 1-11 3D overhead works fine in FSX bar the APU start ( which cocks up the proper engine start procedure)
Must admit ive never tried switching to 2d to start it
Regards
Dale

Re: DM's Comet and P3D
It does seem odd to me that, in the Comet, it is only a couple of gauges, both of which are on the same panel section (centre) - [Vcockpit02] and everything else works fine.
They are:
gauge37=DM_COMET!RADIO_SELECTOR, 220,509,77,74
gauge38=DM_COMET!ENGINE_SYNCHRONISER, 467,488,92,92
But I suppose that if others are seeing a similar problem in the 1-11 then it is a P3D problem.
Cheers

Re: DM's Comet and P3D
Just a further thought. There is only one other clickable gauge on that Centre Panel [Vcockpit02] - the Gear Indicator at the top of the panel.
Guess what? That doesn't click either. So it seems it is the Centre Panel that is the common factor.
Now I'm not a panel expert but could any one else have a look to see if there is something unique (different) about it in the Panel config?
As far as I can see all other switches work elsewhere in David's amazing Comet cockpit.

Re: DM's Comet and P3D
Try clicking the switch using your right mouse button
I found one model that had the same symptons (switch works in 2D but not VC) where the switch moves using right mouse button. .. amazingly enough.

Re: DM's Comet and P3D
Thanks airboatr but that doesn't do the trick either! It just brings up the right-click menu.
I'll shut up now (but quietly keep niggling away at it). If I ever discover why that panel does not respond in P3D I will report back. It may help with DM's other aircraft.

Re: DM's Comet and P3D
We'', I said I'd keep digging...
On the official LM P3D forum, clickspot problems in FS9/FSX VCs have been discussed. The LM guy has a complex technical view which leaves me for dead. He sums up with -
"1 US Dollar says that is the issue people are having, invisible cube nodes.... "
They get in the way apparently.

Re: DM's Comet and P3D
Thanks for that info, Chris. Invisible Cube Nodes, eh? Nasty sounding little rascals, they are - getting in the way, like gremlins
There might not be a cure for them, but at least we've got something to blame!
