Adding new commands

[MrScott]

It is not currently possible to add your own commands like you can with X-Keypad. This is mainly because SimConnect-based sims like FSX/P3D/MSFS do not work the same as X-Plane. There is not an unlimited number of variables and controls like there is with X-Plane datarefs. I can only add buttons for which there are variables and events defined in the SimConnect interface.

I'll take a look and see if there are SimConnect events for setting the elevator trim and reverse thrust. I'm pretty sure there are. I didn't include things like that in the initial version because most pilots map those controls to buttons or axes on their joystick/yoke/throttle, because you generally don't want to be taking your eyes off the screen when you adjust trim or engage reversers.

Please let me know what other controls besides trim and reversers you would like to see added.

Thanks!

That's a shame, but I understand that's currently out of your control, unless MS do something else.

I'll start making a list of things I would prefer to have and see what you think.
Somewhere I have a listing of all the variables, so I'll try and dig that out.

So far it all seems to be working well, apart from some inconsinstencies with non default aircraft.

best wishes

Geoff,

I concur, having the ability to add, and also edit the name, is important. (Change IAS to FLC or Autopilot IAS to FLC Speed). 
As I read all the post here I will comment respectively but in short I love the Program. I have the RealSimGear GTN750 Touch Screen I can run FS-Keypad on when not using the 750 for its intended purpose. Currently looking for a USB monitor with Touch Capabilities. I see a lot of potential here for a fee based product. The Elgato (spelling?) Stream deck is a popular item in the Sim community. I would much prefer FS-Keypad if it can provide the same or more functionality. Hardware items, like my XK-80 Keypad, fall out of favor quickly (it's for sale BTW) vs. software than can be updated.

Thanks,
Scott
