Creating new aircraft registration for TBM 900

[matrixca27]

Hi,

I have just recently downloaded the new version of TBM 900.  I have selected the livery and through the TBM 900 plugin tried to create a new Aircraft Registration  but not able to.

I get the registration screen  (that also lets me customize the letters) but   when I type the letters in the input box, nothing happens, instead certain keys nvokes an xplane command instead.  I have tried to re-install, etc. but not able to figure it out why nothing is being typed in the input field for aircraft registration.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks.

Can you record a short video, or take a series of screenshots of what is happening so we can get a clear idea of what is going on?  Video would be preferred.

Attached is the requested video...

 

As mentioned, when I type in the input box, nothing is being entered...

 

thanks

Something has to be capturing keyboard input. Can you post your Log.txt from within the simulator please? If you are running plugins, please try uninstalling them (except Gizmo). That window is using stock X-Plane window widget functionality to edit that text field. The field is definitely "enabled" for entry, as evidenced by the blinking cursor. So it must be something else that's "swallowing" your character inputs. Perhaps if your Mac input method is selected to something other than plain English?

Attaching the log.txt file.

In the meantime, I will try removing some of the plugins and see if that helps.

Tried removing most of the plugins but still not working.

I am attaching a list of plugins still enabled.

I removed all the plug-ins except XPLM.framework, XPWidgets.Framework, XPWidgets_64.dll, and Gizmo64, then tried it again - still not working.

Not really sure what's causing this, because we've never come across it before.  Can you try reinstalling?

@matrixca Can you check to make sure your Mac's input method is selected to plain English? I just tested some other input methods and if the characters you are trying to enter are anything other than plain latin or numbers, the text field will not show anything:

I checked the keyboard source - it is US.  Still didn't work, so I uninstalled it, re-downloaded and re-installed a fresh copy.   Problem still exists:( .

Further to my last response, I just noticed that I am having the same problem (keyboard strokes not being recognized) when trying to enter my authentication credentials for Chart Access  for Autorouter.aero.

We're trying to figure out what's going on.  Just bear with us for the time being.  It appears this has happened to a few people, but it is not something in the TBM.  As soon as we figure out what is happening, we'll post back.
