That file probably pre-dates the knob/slider animation, which is what I would use if I was writing it now. Is it the middle mouse button to pull the turn knob that you are having a problem with? I think if it used the knob/slider, you'd be able to pull the dial out using alt-lmb.
hello there sanhozay,
I don't understand much about property trees or knob/slider animations.
I just enjoy the 337 so much that I am happy to be in contact with anyone who had any part in developing it.
I am not having any particular problems with that aircraft that I have not learned to solve on my own.
For instance, as a FlightGear enthusiast who has only a simple mouse (two buttons only, with the right button reserved globally by FlightGear for mouse button[2] functions), I have already learned to edit the Navomatic's xml file to allow me to control the autopilot completely using only my mouse's left button (button[0]) and the CTRL, SHIFT and ALT keyboard modifier keys.
I am making a little bit of progress!
About making changes, yes, I notice some problems in the 337's sound department.
I have put out some feelers to learn whether or not the aircraft's original developers are still involved in the aircraft.
If they are still involved, I want to ask their permission to make some changes.
If they are no longer involved, I want to make some changes on my own in order to enable the audio panel and enhance some other issues with audio sound, and submit those changes to the community for purposes of quality control and hopefully implementation.
Please tell me what you think!
