Did a bit of reading on it. You can move the mouse to an absolute screen position based on a defined screen resolution with this:

mousexy(origin,x,y)

However, I don't see any advantage using this over the .radio commands.

To be perfectly honest; niether do I.

It might, however; be nice to be able to enlarge or shrink the clipboard at will.

Yeah, that's an interesting possibility. A limitation would be that the clipboard would always have to be in the same place. I move it around from time to time.

I have a function that allows me to bring up the clipboard, and Zoom in and out using the tuning knob of the throttle.

Is that what your looking for? It's revvin's profile, so I'm not usre how he did it, but you click the knob in to bring up the clipboard, turn it to zoom in and out, and click to close it.

Zooming is not the same as increasing the size of the clipboard. Zooming is done with the keyboard while increasing the size of the clipboard can only be done with the mouse (I think).

Hey AK Iron,

here's something which should be possible with a cougar; although I haven't personaly got it to work yet:

And that's to markedly dampen down stick response when zoomed in. I'd like my stick about half as responsive as normal when zoomed right in.

Any ideas?

Zooming clipboard/bombsight in and out:

Rem
Rem Range Rotary zooms the clipboard in and out when the dogfight switch is in the up or middle position and zooms the bombsight in
Rem when the dogfight switch is in the down position
Rem
RNG /U 3 DEL ^ INS
/M 3 DEL ^ INS
/D 3 [ ^ ]

Also zoom gunsight in and out:

Rem
Rem Antenna Rotary zooms the gunsight in and out and the bombsight when in bomber mode (Dogfight switch in the down position)
Rem
ANT 3 [ ^ ]

You can find my complete profile with graphical layout of the profile here

I used to use the rng knob for zoom but found it to be less responsive than I liked. I now use up and down on hat 2, works much better for me.

I haven't tried it either but the command looks simple enough.

use curve(joyx,-2)

The -2 is a value that can range from -32 to 32. Positive numbers increase sensitivity while negative numbers reduce it.

Just need to add that line(s) to the command that turns on the zoom.
