I want to set the hotkey to 'bypass an in correct checklist call' to Shift+Esc, rather than the default Shift+B (which FS9 already uses as a shortcut to turn on the master battery switch, which I find useful sometimes).

Easy enough in Options, but when I load a profile, the hotkey reverts back to Shift+B (I know this is noted in the pdf files)....

The profiles of course have a hotkey section:

[Hotkeys]
Hotkey1=0032
Hotkey2=3065 ... etc

How would I edit the .pro files so that the hotkey associated with the above function (Hotkey 11, I assume) activates Shift+Esc instead of Shift+B? At the moment all my profiles read "Hotkey11=1066", so I assume 1066 is Shift+B. What number represents Shift+Escape? Presumably if I had the right code number (are they listed somewhere I haven't found?) I could use a batch text editor to change all the relevant values in my (many) .pro files to fix the issue?

Thanks!

Martin

Shift Esc = 1027

I don't know if my memory is getting worse as I get older...
...I just can't remember how it used to be!

That works, thanks! Is there a list of code numbers somewhere (or is there a logical way to work them out)?

FSX/Modules/FSUIPC Documents/FSUIPC4 for Advanced Users.pdf has a list of key codes on page 21+22.
I assume a similar document for FS9/FSUIPC3 exists, or just find the one for FSUIPC4 on the web.

Got it (on my p.19, but whatever). Thanks.
