CONFIRM BEFORE PASTE

[FotiosZafeiriou]

Hi Team,

FA18 here VR user.

I copy a coordinate successfully, I am in precise I am in the 00"00"0000 format.

But it says You are not in the TAC menu 3, thus I need to confirm.

Is there a way to fix this so we dont need to ALT TAB remove the VR and hit the Confirm dialog so we can paste the coordinate ?

Please help thank you

Hi, unfortunately there is no way for the program to know if you have those DDIs set up the proper way for transfer, this is why you need to confirm every time. But the VR concerns are valid

@aronCiucu Can I remove this statement and re-compile ?

    } else if (moduleRef.current === "FA-18C_hornet") {
      //show warning dialog
      AlertDialog({
        title: "Please make sure that",
        content:
          "1. PRECISE option is boxed in HSI > DATA\n" +
          "2. You are not in the TAC menu\n" +
          "3. You are in the 00°00.0000' coordinate format",

@aronCiucu Which is the TAC menu on the FA18 ? It always complain for this.

You cam definitely remove parts of the code and follow to build instructions to recompile. The TAC menu is a DDI page on the Hornet.

I'm sure you can make sure that you open the correct page without the user doing anything special. For example you could press the bottom middle button to bring either the TAC or Support page up (if TAC is open already), then press the bottom left button for target data or fuel page, depending on which page it is. Then press the bottom middle button again. This time you can be certain that it's the TAC page and continue from this known state. This would require a few more button presses, but would stop requiring the user to confirm every time.

Sadly this can't be used to confirm precise mode is set. But surely you can read that out from DCS? if nothing else you can get an export from the DDI and check if the box is there or not. For example you could grab an export of the HSI/Data page, scale it to 256x256 and then check the number of non-black pixels where the "precise" option is.
