SimConnect open ATC window not working

User Support Hub SDK
4

still the same with SU8 April 2022.

Default “Scroll Lock” key will open/close the ATC window.

1 (>K:ATC) in the model behaviours XML will NOT open the window.

1 (>K:ATC_MENU_1) in the model behaviours XML WILL select ATC menu option 1, but only if the ATC menu is already open.

The following entries in fs-base/en-US.locPak (a UI local language dictionary) suggest the existence of events ATC_MENU_OPEN and ATC_MENU_CLOSE but neither of these do anything in the model XML either.

 "INPUT.KEY_ATC": "DISPLAY ATC",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_DESC": "Open the ATC panel.",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_0": "ATC PANEL CHOICE 0",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_0_DESC": "Select ATC panel choice 0.",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_1": "ATC PANEL CHOICE 1",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_1_DESC": "Select ATC panel choice 1.",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_2": "ATC PANEL CHOICE 2",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_2_DESC": "Select ATC panel choice 2.",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_3": "ATC PANEL CHOICE 3",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_3_DESC": "Select ATC panel choice 3.",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_4": "ATC PANEL CHOICE 4",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_4_DESC": "Select ATC panel choice 4.",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_5": "ATC PANEL CHOICE 5",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_5_DESC": "Select ATC panel choice 5.",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_6": "ATC PANEL CHOICE 6",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_6_DESC": "Select ATC panel choice 6.",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_7": "ATC PANEL CHOICE 7",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_7_DESC": "Select ATC panel choice 7.",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_8": "ATC PANEL CHOICE 8",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_8_DESC": "Select ATC panel choice 8.",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_9": "ATC PANEL CHOICE 9",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_9_DESC": "Select ATC panel choice 9.",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_CLOSE": "ATC MENU CLOSE",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_CLOSE_DESC": "Close the ATC UI menu.",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_OPEN": "ATC MENU OPEN",
  "INPUT.KEY_ATC_MENU_OPEN_DESC": "Open the ATC UI menu.",

I’ve ‘grepped’ the entire set of Asobo plane-related files to see if any plane or instrument calls an ‘ATC’ event and as far as I can tell that is not the case.
