A) ATIasHold > The Keyboard and Joystick as "MouseClick" execution Flight Plan > [ Position Click ] B) ATIasHold > The "All Views LOC Position" Save as Default and Restore Flight Plan > [ All View LOC Position ] ==================================================================== ATIasHold includes the Keyboard-Hook System and the MouseClick-Hook system. The aim is to significantly increase the connection possibilities between ATIasHold and any other View such as an airplane or the Simulator AND the various views of ATIasHold. (This feature is similar to the enclosed software "MouseClicks" but only for single "clicks") In other words, this function performs a "click" instead of the mouse. Example: Open Views, click on a View Button or Field, Apl cockpit ecc... This extra feature is giving you exactly what many user are searching for. You are free of any restrictions. This can be done with the keyboard or the Joystick independently of Joystick or Keyboard connections already registered with the "Joystick" Editor. The "Joystick" Editor already includes 2 types of connection for the same use but restricted to 16 Joystick connections + 12 Joystick-Keyboard connections. Namely "joystick" or "keyboard". Remember: Never place a View in the "MIDDLE" of another View. "A part of it" should be out of the bigger View. It is possible that your bigger View is covering your smaller View. The Mouse-Click procedure is using 3 Kbd-connections + one Joystick Connection. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kbd > Number PAD 0 to 9 Kbd numbers D0 to D9 (0..9) kbd Alfa a..z and A ..Z Joystick button Using the Mouse-Click on an image such as a Cockpit it is evident that the image must be exactly at the recorded xy Video coordinates. This is very simple because each simulator uses Keyboard Keys which move an image to the same FIX xy position. For example X-Plane uses the Number Pad numbers 4 + 6. Since the key combination like Ctrl + NumPad 4 does not interfere we can use this combination for a different Mouse-Click. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ The Keyboard and Joystick connections are SIMULATOR specific! ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ Position Clicks /////////////////// A) ATIasHold uses: (1) A BackGround View that covers the Desktop behind the ATIasHold views. Open the BackGround View from the Flight Plan View! --------------------------------------------------- (2) The X, Y position on the video is recorded when the program is closing with the files of type "LastLoc1", "LastLoc2" etc ... When the program is opened, the ATIasHold views are positioned as left. (3) This is where the new function "Position Click" begins. 4) The "Position Click" feature Flight Plan View > [Position Click] ---------------------------- The use is quite simple: While using this Tool it is suggested NOT to use the Keyboard connection. Close the Kbd-Hook > ^F12 - The "Red" Label should not be visible. Avoid interferences with the Simulator while editing. <<< The Hook system is still intercepting the Kbd but not executing! >>> Any Kbd press is visible in the 'Keyboard Key' Field. (Same with other views using the Keyboard Hook) "Keyboard Click position" ========================= - Close the Keyboard connection if open (^12) - Ctrl + F12. The Kbd-connection is still active but not executing. - Input the "Description" - Select a Simulator. Note that "Any" is for any Simulator. - Type a single Kbd Key or combined with a Ctrl-Key. - ONLY NOW > ---------- - Click on [ New Position ] now your Mouse (Click) is "OFF" - Click on any Position, Buttons on open Views or Airplane Cockpit or Simulator - Mouse is again "ON" - Verify and test Click on [ Exec ] The connection is activating your Record selection - Save the selection - [ Save Kbd Key ] ID Key X Y The ListBox is registering: Kbd,Your description,^NumPad0,1860,663,Simulator - The Control procedure is checking for errors x same simulator and Joystick File selected. Remember: You can select this connections using the Ctrl-Key + Kbd-Key or just press the Kbg NumPad Key like 0,1,2,3 or the Kbd-Numbers D0..D9 or Alfa Kbd A..Z. This is very important. You avoid interferences with the Simulator. Or Click on a List Item and use the [ Exec ] Button. Exec is ALWAYS executing the Click for a Test. The Mouse-Click procedure is using 3 Kbd-connections + one Joystick Connection. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kbd > Number PAD 0 to 9 Kbd numbers D0 to D9 kbd Alfa a..z and A ..Z Joystick buttons "Joystick Click position" ========================= Close the Kbd-Hook > ^F12 - The "Red" Label should not be visible. You don't need it here. The use is the same with one difference . . . - Select [New Position] (on the right side) - Instead of selecting a Kbd-Key you use a Joystick button or combination. - The Value is indicated in the Joystick Number Field - Make a test with the [ Exec ] Button - Now [ Save Joystick ] ID JoyNr X Y The ListBox is registering: Joy,your description,524288,1860,663,Simulator Nota: L-Click on a ListBox Item. This connection is active for a test > [Exec] L-Click then R-Click on a Item. You can delete the connection. When the Kbd-Hook system is "ON" (^F12) and a Kbd-Key or Joystick Key is depending on this value execution is active. Example: When you edit a Text and type "R" a corresponding action is activated (ATIasHold or Simulator). \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ All Views LOC Position + Restore /////////////////// [Flight Plane] > Open the View [All Views LOC Position] What is doing this View is explaind on top of the View. When opening the left side is listing the actual Views Last-Video Position. The right listing is empy. - Select [ Load Default ] is listing the actual saved Default setting for all Views. - Save Last Views Screen position - When you open the program and "don't change" any position use the listed items. - When you change a View Position you must close and re-open the program.
