I, like so many others, use VoiceAttack with Elite Dangerous.
I have loved, LOVED how Frontier has their station menu loops. For example. If your in your ship, and you hold your "UI UP" button, what happends? It moves to the top--then STAYS there. If you release the button, and press up again, it loops around. Great.
However, this is not the case with the panels, and I can't figure out why, FOR THE LIFE OF ME.
Please Frontier, give us the same behavior. Why? Because we can then force the panel / tab state. We can tell voice attack to "open left panel, hold left tab for 1 second, tab right, tab right" now I know, whether I started on the 5th tab, or the 1st tab, I will end on the 3rd tab.
Unfortunately, if I press and hold currently, it just moves one tab. nothing more. Adding the fact that the panels loop, and it is impossible to force a position. To be clear, I needs to function like the station "launch menu", where if I press and hold it doesn't loop indefinitely, but rather stops at an edge.
Please frontier? Of course, you could just report the exact menu position to us through API tools, but I suspect that isn't in the cards, so can you at least provide us a way to consistently force a menu position without knowing said starting point?
Thanks!!!
