Hello

I have noticed something while using the Majestic Dash 8 with GSX. GSX asks for different doors of the plane to be opened in order to complete catering and other services. Those doors are opened with SHIFT+E+2/3/4 keys. The problem being, the moment i activate PF3 (selecting one of the "use push&start", "start only"...options) those key combinations cease to function. I only get a SHIFT+E recognized, no matter how much i try. Of course this means shutting down PF3 if i´m caught with a service door open so i can close it.

I have checked the hotkeys options in PF3 and i don´t see anything that could interfere with said commands.

Are other people able to open/close secondary doors with PF3 active?

Same hare, I start PF3 after closing doors.

Sorry to put a damper on this but I have no issues with doors opening/closing.
So if your hotkeys haven't changed then it could be a setting in FSX that could be the issue, maybe a process of elimination.

Are you sure you can also open secondary doors such as cargo doors?

I have the same issue because the combination is ctrl+E and then a number
but the number gets interpreted by PF3 instead of being forward to FSX so the only door able to open is the main entrance ... none of the others.
I don't really see an easy solution though as I think PF3 can't know when we want to open doors.

what I use is "DoorControl-gauge by Georg Aubele"

you can find it on Avsim, it works very well

That gauge works great, thanks for the advice.
