and follow the instruction.
(see also "Click here for the Calibration.jpg" for reverence.)

You may have to give "Click-able_Radio_Menu_Calibration_Tool.exe" administration rights. - this depends on your UAC settings.

It is necessary to run DCS World the first time windowed , so you can see the instruction.
You can switch back again after a successful calibration .

The calibration Tool will create a "Clickable_Radio_Menu.ini" where the X/y coordinates are stored.

You can click the Radio Menu with the Middle Mouse button when the calibration is done.
(It's the Middle Mouse button to prevent conflicts with the clickable cockpits)
You can Change anytime the button by right clicking the Green Tray-Icon with a 'H' to your liking.

FC3 and Su25T Users have to press once ESC and than the Pause/Brake key to get a visible Mouse Pointer!
Than you can move the "ESC"pop-up to a place where it doesn't disturb your view - simply drag'n'drop .

Run the Calibration Tool again when you change your screen layout.

DCS World\Scripts\UI\RadioCommandDialogPanel\CommandMe nu.lua

Hot tip:

Place a shortcut of the file with the button of your choise in your Startup folder.

So what's the difference between this one and the one I downloaded in August last year?

Just compatibility to 1.2.2?


I say it as I see it

Bump..will this work with 1.2.4...? And does it change the actually radio message fonts as well as the clickable area? I need better, more clear fonts in the messages area at the top of the screen since I use them to title screen caps frequently...

I'll try it with 1.2.4 tomorrow...just thought I'd ask..

Gave this a whirl with 1.2.4 and it appears to work fine. Most maybe want to make the font smaller, but for my purposes it works pretty good. (I use screen grabs a lot to use the radio captions..) It is particularly nice for me because I spend a lot of time flipping around with the F-keys to external views and I can't tell you how many times I've accidentally entered a radio command I didn't want...

Use the middle mouse button to click each of the F communication lines and it works.. smile

Mod available: HERE!
