Title: SHIFT + F12 Conflicting with Active Sky menu
Post by: asegm08 on November 22, 2020, 02:47:09 am

I am having an issue with the latest HF of P3D 5.1. For some reason, when I press SHIFT + F12. Instead of the GSX menu showing, it prompts the HIFI Active Sky weather menu. This only happens after I land at my destination, when I first open the sim, and I am loading my first flight, both menus work correctly without any issues. The HIFI menu also will not close when I click, "Close window", even if I close the menu using the RIGHT click and clicking "Close Window" it will reappear, without command on a view shift.

Is this something you've encountered?

The default key used by GSX is not Shift-F12, but CTRL-Shift+F12 so, it seems you changed the default GSX key to be Shift-F12.

When you change the default key, you must be sure it's not used by another add-on, and if it is, you must change it either in GSX or in that other add-on, assuming it gives you the ability to change it in the first place.

Thanks. I misspoke. I have not changed the default key mapping. The concern is that it is at times brining up the HIFI menu instead of the correct menu.

I have reported it in their forum, particularly the persistence of the forum. So I will monitor to see if it happens again. To be clear, both of the mapping are in default installation hotkeys.

Are you sure what you are looking at is the "wrong" menu ( entirely wrong ), or just the wrong "title" ? This used to be a bug in 5.1, but it's supposed to have been fixed with the HF1.
