On Screen Keyboard option

[Caden12]

Hello,

I am an Xbox simmer, and on almost all (if not all) of your aircraft have this option in the EFB, unless I am missing it somewhere.

On the Tristar PFB, it is missing, prompting the Xbox keypad to pop up. Of course, the built in Xbox keypad doesn’t do anything, so I have to exit out each time I need to type a letter. It is very annoying, this addition would make it a far more pleasant experience alongside the rest of your fleet.

 

Thank you

Second this. I have a bluetooth keyboard and mouse connected to my Xbox, otherwise I would be throwing things, ha.

I am also an Xbox simmer and I have found that with the L1011 in particular when I have to use my keyboard I cancel it out and use the normal numbers. Not the number pad numbers. It's a work around for now.

Completely agree.  To put in a single letter or digit you have to press one come out back in and do the next.  Seems a complete shambles of a way to input your simbrief id.  Xbox x here too
