Posted by: @alihorSo I first have to click on the simulator window, to get the focus, and after on FSUIPC controller button.
But this is what I do not understand - key presses should always get sent to the FS window, regardless of what window has the focus. But I will check this and take a look at your files.
I may have time today, but if not this will have to wait until next week as I am away from later tonight, back Monday morning.
In the mean-time, please try with the SetForegroundOnKeySend ni parameter set to Yes to see if this helps. With this set, FSUIPC will try to set the focus to the MSFS main window before sending any key events to the sim.
The log file you attached shows no button presses and ends after 103 seconds, and looks like it was attached when FSUIPC was still running.
Please turn all logging off except for the requested logging: Buttons & Keys. Then attach your log showing your issue, i.e. containing the button press event that triggers the view change. If this is not logged, then FSUIPC is NOT seeing the button press. As I said, you can do this with the logging console open (Log -> Open Console) to see if FSUIPC is seeing the button press in real time. Also, always please exit FSUIPC7 before attaching files.
I need to confirm that the button press is being seen and the relevant view change control is sent...you say it is but I have not seen any evidence of this so far...
Yes, " key presses should always get sent to the FS window" this is exactly what is not working!
Take your time , it is not urgent, as I look for a solution since one year. 😀
I will try your advice.
How is your father doing?

You also have a missing controller:
E=4-Axis,12-Button with POV << MISSING JOYSTICK >>
E.GUID={D34E2A70-553C-11F1-8001-444553540000}
And your aircraft names in your profiles need updating: you should use substrings to match all variants. For example, change:
[Profile.Bell47] 2=Bell 407 Black-Orange 1=FlyInside B47G Floats 4=FlyInside B47G Orange Floats 3=FlyInside B47G
to
[Profile.Bell47] 1=FlyInside B47G 2=Bell 407
i.e. shorten the aircraft names to remove livery/tail number information, so that the entry matches multiple variants

I am not sure that this is what is happening, especially without seeing evidence, i.e. your log showing the issue, so please provide this. And I will check here (next week).
And what about with SetForegroundOnKeySend set? Please let me know if that helps...
Posted by: @alihorHow is your father doing?
He's doing well, thanks. He's just recovering from a hip-replacement, so not very mobile at the moment.
