Console window?

[javelina]

sorry for the Newb question.

I have the console window open, in the upper left corner. Shows all of the important sim info, whilst flying.

Unfortunately, I cannot make that console window active while flying the sim. Such as clicking it with my mouse, so that I can get a console text input entry. (Such as entering the RR for reloading, etc).

The only way I can make the console window active is to click, and create another window. Then I can go back and click on the header of the console... But after I save everything, I've another useless window, along with the console, and can't click either to make them active, for entering text commands.

any suggestions?

TIA,

Are you holding down ALT while clicking on it to be able to type in the chat bar? I believe its the left ALT. Just clicking won't highlight the box. I think the reason is because you have a clickable cockpit, so the windows you can open for chat and all that have to use L ALT + mouse click.

Good to hear! I suggest getting the windows placed perfectly before making them see-thru. If you place them too close to the edges of the screen they start moving around every time you start the game. Snapper taught me that one.
