Detecive issue: no commands (event) showing, only lights
Hello!
When I use the Detective mode, I do exactly like instructed on the YT video. However my version must be newer because I can't "hide" nothing on the right side, 2nd column.
I was able to program most switches, just by using the Module tab and finding the function in the "Button Event". There are a few switches I want to program but I can't find the actual Event for it.
So here is what I do, I click monitor, wiggle all around look all around with joystick and then Pause Toggle.
Then I go to "Detected" at the right side, first column, select all and click the "hide" button. Now I unpause and no data comes up, as expected.
Then in the sim, I click my button to see what happens. For example ( I know this is an easy one), I click on the Taxi Light button. From here, the Detective only shows light information (like the exterior lights are on) but no actual switch information (the command/Button Event I need to have to get my GoFlight module to switch on the taxi light button).
The monitor shows:
DataRef: sim/flightmodel2/lights/taxi_lights_brightness_ratio[0] and repeats this.
This is my reference to turn on the LED on the GF module, but not the actual Button Event.
The YT video actually shows that when you press a button/switch, there is light information but also switch/button information.
I would appreciate any insight, thank you!!
