I can change variables but not the display

I am programming an RP48 button to step through the settings on the PFD CDI. The variables change when I test the bespoke event and when the event is assigned to a button; however, the CDI display doesn't change. Can anyone suggest what I'm missing?

  • Sometimes the developer of a gauge only monitors events to trigger changes and simply uses the variable to track current position etc.

    I would look for a suitable event.

  • Steve, Are you suggesting I look in the detective (which I have done) for a suitable event or elsewhere. I've scoured the SDK documentation and just can't find anything. Since this is an ASOBO aircraft and the Garmin 1000 is now included in the base program, I wouldn't expect a hidden variable or event. However, could this be a WASM event?

    Another note: how close are we to the new detective?

    Thanks for all your help.
  • Yes, it could be a WASM event, but I don't know of a way to automatically find those as yet.

    Best wishes

  • Steve, Thanks for the reply. Do you know of any way to get a list of WASM events or variables?
  • The last time I looked at this, I used the developer tools within MSFS and there is an option to drill down into the gauges and see the code (can't recall what the option is off hand). Looking at the code you can spot the events.

    Best wishes
