I’ve noticed that the default VR controller bindings don’t have VR - Primary Action bound, only VR - Left and VR - Right.
I can’t get into the sim proper to test but worth a shot?

It also doesn’t function when windowed in non-VR. Presumably they use the same system as VR when in this mode. Hopefully they vix it because it can be put on an external tablet which is super cool imo.
I first tested it in the 172 in the bracket and it was fine. Then I brought it up in the TBM where it was a floating window and no response at all, so maybe it only works when in the bracket as part of the cockpit as opposed to floating window form?

• EFB works in Asobo 737 max in VR mode, but not in Asobo 787 when in VR mode. I can bring it up but cannot click on anything within the EFB.

Same problem with EFB in VR. Cannot interact with it unless it is mounted to a bracket in the cockpit. Fly4Sim does not plan on making a VR map addon for MSFS 2024 so Asobo HAS TO FIX THEIR EFB IN VR.
Or we have to put a contact point/bracket in every plane so we can use an EFB within the cockpit. Unbelievable that Asobo once again broke many features for those of us who fly in VR. Toolbar wonky in VR as well - doesn’t always work.
