Hi,

I have a problem that is intermittent. I use Track IR and EZDoc and sometimes when I change back my view to the VC, I'm unable to click on any button. The curson does not change indicating a clickable item.

After some switching back and forth between VC and other views, the problem resolve itself without further intervention.

But I was not able to find exactly why its not working at some time and working again after a while.

Any idea what can cause this?

Pierre

Pierre,

My first guess would be that you may have knocked on "mouse yoke" accidentally...that is usually what I have done when I have similar problems while testing.

Give it a try and see if that causes it...

My guess is that your viewpoint becomes too far back for the clickspots to be active.

Try moving your head forward a bit or move your head back a bit and hit the TIR "cemter" button. If
you haven't programmed a button for the TIR "center" and "pause" functions I suggest that you
do as those two functions will get around a lot of minor irritations, letting you look further in any
given direction than your normal range of head movement allows and allowing you to "hot" small
clickspots easily.

That's it. Its really the head position that matters. I have already the "center" button assigned to a yoke button and use it regularly to recenter the view. I dont want to make this close view permanent as I use 3 screens and the pilot view is much too close to the panel when I want to activate the VC switches. I instead created different views with EZCA with one close to the panel so all the switches are functionnal and another one backward so I have a good view when cruising.

Thanks for the tip.

Pierre
