Mouse position in VC

Postby BlueThing » Tue Nov 29, 2016 4:11 pm

Hi Dan and FI team,

I've been submitting by now multiple feature requests but unfortunately hardly ever got a reply.
It would be nice to get some feedback once in a while so I would know what you guys are thinking and should I expect any feature to get into release.


And now to today's feature request:
Currently the mouse position is relative to the point of view.

I think it would make a lot of sense to have the option to have the mouse pointer relative to the virtual world.
e.g., If I put the mouse on a specific knob or switch, then the mouse would stay on that element even if I look away and then look back.

In the configuration you could add an option to choose the mouse operation mode
1) "mouse relative to view point"
2) "mouse relative to virtual world"
3) "bind a button to change the mouse operation mode"

have a nice day

Hi Dan and FI team,

I've upgraded to v1.8 couple of days ago and I was very happy to realize that this feature was finally implemented.
v1.8 is a huge improvement to the cockpit interaction and usability of FI.

A minor thing:
I've notticed that the mouse can only stick to the same postion as long as it is within the visible field of view.
If possible, it would be great to have it sticking also when we look completely away.


I'd like to use this opportutnity to thank you guys again not only for this feature :) but for a great software and creating this very friendly community.

cheers

+1 on this as well :)

I too have seen how this has been fixed in version 1.8 but also noticed what is mentioned how it will only work as long as the cursor/pointer is within your FOV so if there's a way fixing that as well it would be awesome!
