Hi Don, I have forwarded your message to FlightGear's user mailing list in the hopes that someone can answer your question.
The mailing lists and forums are described here : http://flightgear.org/mail.html ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Upcom Technologies <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Dec 12, 2007 2:17 PM Subject: flight gear panel control with mouse issue To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi I am enjoying flightgear tremendously. I am running it on a Dell Inspiron 6000 series laptop and find the mouse pad (Alps Touch Pad) will not activate the panel controls as per the directions. The right button *does* switch between the 3 modes. Mode 2 *does* operate the flight surfaces, and mode 3 *does* pan POV, but mode 1 (arrow pointer) *does not* engage control points (those enclosed in yellow frames when Ctrl c is pressed). I have not modified mice.xml , preferences.xml, though I did make changes to joystick.xml (default) to use 2 buttons on my controller. I saved the original joystick file and tried restoring it but still not able to grab panel controls with it. L Can you please advise what I am missing. Many important functions lie just outside my reach. Thanks again to the flightgear community. I'm having a blast! Hope to eventually contribute something back.
