\textbf{Mouse controlled functions:}
|
|
There are three mouse modi. In the usual mode (pointer curser) panel's controls can be operated
|
|
with the mouse. To change a control, click with the left/middle mouse button on the
|
|
corresponding knob/lever. While the left mouse button leads to small increments/decrements,
|
|
the middle one makes greater ones. Clicking on the left hand side of the knob/lever
|
|
decreases the value, while clicking on the right hand side increases it.
|
|
|
|
\noindent
|
|
Right clicking the mouse activates the simulator control mode (cross hair cursor). This allows
|
|
control of aileron/elevator via the mouse in absence of a joystick
|
|
(enable \texttt{-$ $-enable-auto-coordination} in this case).
|
|
|
|
\noindent
|
|
Right clicking the mouse another time activates the view control mode (arrow cursor).
|
|
This allows changing direction of view via the mouse.
|
|
|
|
\noindent
|
|
Right clicking the mouse once more resets it into the initial state.
