Oh, this actually shows a larger problem. Obviously it isn't too uncommon for aircraft to disable or override specific menu items - mainly affects menu items for the radio stack and autopilot. Unfortunately all of this is done using fixed menu item positions - e.g. 5th menu, 3rd item... So any change of the menu item ordering currently breaks lots of planes. And obviously the recent menubar overhaul has done just that. We'll need to adapt all the aircraft using such hacks to the changed menu structure. And might need to think about a better solution to avoid future problems of this kind. I did a quick grep to find potentially affected aircraft (couldn't verify if their menus are all broken now, but that's the ones overriding or disabling specific menu items using fixed positions):
717 737-300 737NG600 737NG700 737NG800 737NG900 747-400 757-200 777-200 A320-family A380 Aerostar-700 b1900d Citation-Bravo CitationX> CRJ-200 CRJ-900 f16 f-14b fokker100 MiG-15 VMX22-Osprey => All the aircraft above override the radio and/or autopilot dialogs. Except for the MiG15, which just disables one dialog (like the f14). So, what do we do? Adapt all the aircraft above - or revert the menu item ordering? cheers, Thorsten On Thu, Dec 30, 2010 at 6:37 PM, ThorstenB <bre...@gmail.com> wrote: > The F14 disables the first menu item from the 5th menu.... > > ext_stores.nas => setprop("sim/menubar/default/menu[5]/item[0]/enabled", 0); > > Not sure which menu item originally was at this location. > Quite bad.
