 |
|
| I downloaded an Air France 747 texture for the default b747 and the autopilot button, CMD, is not being recognized as a button; I don't get the hand thing over it when I hover. I tried engaging altitude hold, and it turns on, but does nothing. Is there no AP in FSX? |

A texture add-on will not affect the panel. Make sure that what you've dowloaded is what you say you've downloaded; also make sure that the file is indeed for FSX.

| Maybe I don't understand what you are trying to do, but are you in Virtual Cockpit, or the other one? I've had problems trying to engage buttins in VC, but not the normal cockpit. |

We've arrived at the stage where you'll just have to tell us what the name of your downloaded file is and where you got it from. A link to it would be even better

I've installed the textures you've uploaded and as I suspected there isn't a problem. Here's a screenie of the panel:
You won't be able to see the 'hand' just as you never see the (arrow) cursor on screenshots. But it does work allright.
You could always try uninstalling the air france textures and see if the problem still exists. But as I said earlier, textures do not affect panels and their functionality.
