Is that same issue than this one ?: Toolbar Icons Remain Highlighted

3

No… that other one means that EACH icon within the toolbar stays highlighted WHITE randomly, even when the associated panel or window is not open. It’s borked.

Mine is about the ENTIRE toolbar visibility.

I’ve set one of my joystick buttons to switch it off when I enter the flight, and this works OK, but it is annoying. There are now several extra things I have to do now just to get into a flight.

In FS2020 several items like this were selectable in the settings, not the toolbar though as this was off by default. Much more sensible.

I’m noticing the toolbar automatically launches when I launch VR. However I can toggle the toolbar on and off by clicking the right mouse button. I believe I set it up to do this pre-beta by assigning mouse buttons to different functions

Toolbar addons are broken anyway in SU2: In-game panels do not appear on the screen or there are issues with the windows - [MSFS 2024] Bug Reports / HTML/JS - MSFS DevSupport

In any event, just use Alt-T to close the toolbar.

I am also having this problem

Happens to me as well, though it reliably disappears when I hit the assigned button on my joystick.

However I see it as more as a “feature” than a bug, at least in a beta, because I often need to hit pause when starting a test flight in mid air in VR, so as to set the auto pilot for a repeatable course and altitude to compare fps.

Also in the Magni gyroplane, I like to pause in mid air spawns, so I can adjust the cyclic trim, as it always spawns with extreme down trim.
