I have the tilt wheel bound to x-/y-axis lock (Toggle) for a specific application. I'd like to figure out a way to prevent both axes from being locked simultaneously.
Is there a specific option for doing this? If I were able to bind the tilt wheel to the following commands, I think that would solve things.
Tilt right: disable y-axis lock, enable x-axis lock
Tilt left: disable x-axis lock, enable y-axis lock

Re: Prevent simultaneous x and y axis locking
No this is not possible currently - there is no way inside the simkeys to toggle between x and y lock.
I may be able to add a simkey tag to do this - but if you just toggle - how would you unlock both/either axis when you are done?

Re: Prevent simultaneous x and y axis locking
I don't necessarily need to toggle between them. I just want to prevent having both of them locked at the same time. For example, if the eahc lock axis key first checked that the other was disabled, then I think that would do it.
Re: Prevent simultaneous x and y axis locking
OK, As I said, pretty sure this is not currently possible... I would have to add tags to toggle between X/Y lock.
Not difficult, but I have a massive list of things to do in XMBC and I havn't really found any time for it in the last year and a half and I don't see that changing soon as life is in the way too much! (although I will have wasted $80 for the signing certificate if I don't make a release in a few months so you never know!)
I'll add the ability to toggle between locked axis to the simkey tags.

Re: Prevent simultaneous x and y axis locking
No worries. Thanks for the reply.
Re: Prevent simultaneous x and y axis locking
Just a thought... Are you locking using the "Lock axis" in the dropdown or in simulated keystrokes?
Because in simulated keystrokes, you should be able to {UNLOCKXY} prior to {LOCKX} or {LOCKY} and that should ensure that both axis are not locked together. You cant do that in the mouse button dropdown(s), only in simulated keystrokes.
The next version will, if you select "Lock X Axis" in the drop down, unlock Y before locking X (if Y is locked) so this will become irrelevant.
The next version will also include (in simkeys) a tag {LOCKC} to cycle the locked axis (X -> Y -> None) so one button can cycle the state.
Regards,
Phil

Re: Prevent simultaneous x and y axis locking
That should do it, but it does not seem to recognize any of the UNLOCK commands. I tried {UNLOCKY}, {UNLOCKX}, and {UNLOCKXY}. I also tested each of those commands by themselves but still no dice. It is possible that I'm missing a setting someplace, but I can wait for the next release.
Re: Prevent simultaneous x and y axis locking
The unlock commands may be new (as in after 2.19.2). Im about to publish a beta of 2.20 which definitely has these (and the above mentioned changes) in it.
Probably wont be today (I'm running out of time) but hopefully I will get around to it this week - quite a few other changes and fixes so I need to give it a bit of a run out here first

All good. I really appreciate the support. The next round is on me.
