Problem assigning Elevator Trim (Joystick Slider X + - )

SJA now fixed while reporting issue - see steps below for anyone else who managed to miss this…

Description of the issue:
Got most things set up as before in 2020 I think but I heavily used the Joystick slider as my trim wheel control and so far cannot do this anymore.
MSFS 2024 picks it up only as a slider control and not as 2 separate button controls with X- and X+ as MSFS 2020 did

Joystick Slider X-
Joystick Slider X+

Quite Note on Fox: I missed the left hand LIST of buttons…

[PC Only]

FIXED USING STEPS BELOW STEPS

Unassign Joystick Slider X to trim (if assigned)

  1. Select Elevator trim up/down
  2. Click cog to the right
  3. Use left hand pane (list of available controls/buttons)
  4. At the bottom I could select Specifically Joystick Slider X+ OR X-) :slight_smile:

Happier Bunny!

This isn’t working for me. Any further tips? I have a Thrustmaster HOTAS too. I’m following exactly what you did.

The only way I can get any sort of trim to respond is if I set the axis in the screen by scanning and operating the control. The problem then is that it expects the control to stay there; as soon as you let go, the trim centralises and doesn’t do anything anymore.
