spoceto1003 0 Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I have seen other posts on this issue, but there is NO definitive answer on how to cure the problem, merely a link to another post about the same problem, but no way of curing this problem. I have a joystick and a keypad with a track mat ( I don't have a mouse wheel) I hover the hand symbol over the Altimeter knob, and as others state it, either goes in with a left click of the mouse or out with a right click of the mouse. This is selecting managed and selected settings.. but I can not increase the altitude with this system. I have tried zooming in and moving the icon all around it but I can not alter the setting, Can someone please tell me how to do this, as it is ruining the whole experience.

Another reason a user found was that there fonts were set to 125% instead of 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you explain about the font size? which do you mean? is there a font size in FSX? I'm sorry I don't understand your reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Fletcher 570 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Thank you for taking the time to reply to my post. Can you explain about the font size? which do you mean? is there a font size in FSX? I'm sorry I don't understand your reply. Its your desktop, if you right click on your Desktop and select, "Screen Resolution" a window opens if using Vista/7. Then you will see a line saying, "Make text and other Items Larger or Smaller" Select this link and a new window opens and check that its set to 100%.

lahargouej 0 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 I purchased the AirbusX from PC Aviator last week and I too am having the same issue. I have V122 and I have uninstalled and re-installed the Zip file twice with no success at correcting the problem. My screen resolution is correctly set at 100% How can you fly this sim without the ability to change heading, speed, or altitude? Thanks in advance for any help.

Shaun Fletcher 570 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Hello Jack, Its the font size and not screen resolution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs Herman 1591 Posted August 2, 2012 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted August 2, 2012 Lack of a mouse wheel may the issue. The product page on the Aerosoft site clearly states a wheel mouse is part of the required kit. That said, the text on page 9 of volume 1 of the manual set would have you believe that you can just right click/left click to change values. I suggested a change to this page a while back, but it's still there in version 1.22. So, first the altitude and speed knobs need to be pulled out before you can change values. Once back, with a wheel mouse, scrolling the wheel does the trick. I just tried my AirbusX to see if I could change values without the wheel and I could not. Besides ensuring you have the font size set correctly (at 100%), see if this post is of any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
