What are you talking about? I am curious to know how FSUIPC could help there, but if it can bring an alternative solution, I would be much interested.

What I am talking about as you put it.....FSUIPC can be configured to show Multiline messages or Single line messages depending what you want.
Hi,

As Dave said, I was indeed searching for the hotkeys to be displayed, not the ATC communications.
Pity there's no way to do that.

I'll still consider PF3 though, this is an excellent ATC software and I feel like I'm missing something. I'm going to check the demo further especially the hotkeys assignements to see if I can make something easier to use.

Many thanks for your answers

Hello everyone,

I think I've come up with a somewhat sloppy but useful solution to the kmax59 question.

If we take a look at the contents of the FS9 or FSX Kneeboard, we will see that one of its pages (the one accessed by pressing the "A" button), takes us to all FSX or FS9 commands, Which I suppose we all already know by heart.

We are talking about a file called 'kneeboard_keys.htm' located at:

FS9: Unit Letter: \ Flight Simulator 9 \ Aircraft (U: is the unit where FS9 is isntalled).
FSX: Unit Letter: \ Microsoft Games \ Microsoft Flight Simulator X \ Uires.

The solution is to rename the file "kneeboard_keys.htm" to "kneeboard_keys.htm.old" or make a backup of it before pasting my proposed file (kneeboard_keys.htm) in that location.

In this way, if in flight we need information about a particular command, pressing F10, and the icon "A", we will have access to that information.

By the way, in my system I have customized the hot key "Roger" as "C / S / +".

I do not think that this alteration in the simulator (FSX / FS9) is going to cause any problem of PF3 operation, since it is a simple HTML file.

I've been using it for several time and I have not noticed any issue.

A greeting.

By the way,

The file "kneeboard_keys.htm" is based on the file 'Restyle Hotkeys PF3.pdf' which you can access via this link: http://www.ocs-support.co.uk/pf3_update ... %20PF3.pdf

Cheers.

An easier way is to create an autohotkey script to open and close a pdf viewer.

Hi all,

Thanks for your suggestions, I've finally decided to go for it a few seconds ago and now downloading the full installer.
I'm still not 100% certain I'll like the hotkeys way, but I also got an MCE copy, I have some troubles with it but once it will be solved, I should be able to fully enjoy both products :)

I'd be interested in this but I must admit I absolutely don't know what to do. Could you please explain more in depth?
