Clipboard, mini controls, etc. not available
Clipboard, mini controls, etc. not available
i just purchased and downloaded the PA 28 180 for FSX. Under the views tab-instrument panel, the clipboard, mini controls and everything else is all there but when i click on them they don't open. The key commands don't work either. With the key commands i'll see a flash of a window. I'm running windows 7, 64 bit, 12gb ram, AMD Radeon HD 5700 Series card on 3 screens. Disabling 2 screens does not change anything. Any help would be appreciated.Thanks Hunter

Re: Clipboard, mini controls, etc. not available
Hello Hunter - welcome to the forums.
Please can you start by downloading and installing the Accu-Sim update available here if you haven't already done this.
Also, please can you check that the transparency of the 2-D windows hasn't accidentally been set to 100%. You can check this setting via the standard FSX menus: options → settings → display → aircraft tab.
If these steps don't help, please can you let us know which version of FSX you're using as it makes a difference to some of the potential troubleshooting steps. For instance is it the boxed edition of FSX, FSX with the Acceleration add-on, or the Steam Edition of FSX?
Thanks,
Nick

Hi Nick. Thank you for the response. The update was already in place but i re-installed it anyway from the link you provided. Transparency was set to 0, 2-D & 3-D. No change with the issue. I'm using the boxed FSX version with the acceleration add on but the acceleration is not installed. FSX SP1 & 2 are installed. I have the pa 28 180 on my gaming laptop too with the same FSX installation and everything works fine. Thanks for your help. hunter

Hello,
it sounds like your FSX is in a somewhat corrupt state, hence the SP2 features not working. Can you please try reinstalling Simconnect.

Please download and run the above and then restart your system.
Hopefully that should see you right, otherwise it will be an FSX repair, but lets do one step at a time.
thanks,
Lewis

Ive heard windows updates causing issues for some using the old 2006 disc edition of FSX. You might need to reinstall the service packs or the simconnect again I am afraid.
I would recommend if using FSX to upgrade to the steam edition for the extra little fixes it brings and general ease of use for file verification etc all built into steam.
