Update 1.2: Two small issues
-
Thanks a lot for the 1.2 update to the TBM. A great aircraft just got better!
Just starting up the aircraft and clicking around a bit, I've ran into 2 (very small) issues that might be nice to fix in a possible further update. At least, if they're confirmed to be issues and not just something happening on my side.
-
Annunciator panel test switch: can't move it to the TEST 2 position. Left click immediately moves it to the TEST 1 position. Right or middle click does nothing. Clicking and dragging down does nothing, as the switch already moved to TEST 1.
I can move it to TEST 2 with the scroll wheel, but only momentarily, it immediately switches back to OFF. -
Tablet: when configured to us the TDS GTN 750xi, if I move the tablet over the GPS, the tablet buttons overlaying the GPS "touch" screen don't work.
Just noticed this because having the tablet over the GPS during startup is a quite handy position, that doesn't block any important instruments.
It's just the tablet buttons that are over the GPS screen. All other tablet buttons work fine. And I can "select" which buttons don't work by moving the tablet slightly.
Neither of these 2 issues are true blockers or deal breakers. Just wanted to bring them to attention.
Thanks again for the update!

For the first issue, are you using the legacy interaction mode? I have no such trouble over here, but I have found that the legacy interaction switch templates have some strange bugs (likely because it's relatively unsupported compared to the current version), like cursors and arrows being in the wrong direction. I had to fix a few of these for the Duke, but they can be a substantial imposition on the developer just for legacy support. That isn't to say that I won't take care of it, though.
For the tablet, yes, I've known about this issue with touchscreens for a long time. I have asked every developer of high quality aircraft that I know, and none of our combined suggestions have yielded a solution. I'm sorry about that, but you can be sure that I will update all of my aircraft if I ever find a solution to this issue.
I'm glad you're enjoying the update, and thanks for letting me know!

Concerning the annunciator test button: I started the sim to double check that I wasn't using legacy interaction mode. Decided to start the TBM to re-test. And now it's working as expected.
Very strange, cause I tested multiple times yesterday.
Anyway, that report can thus be ignored further.As for the GPS thingy, it's not a blocking issue for me. Glad that it's on your radar.
Thanks for the reply and to great add-ons!
