• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

disable input/keybinding in iframe/coherent UI

Hello together.

Seems like a noob question and surely is. Ive tried, really, but somehow i cant make it work.

I have a toolbar plugin, very simple. It shows an iframe with a website. All the JS is done on that page, so i dont have to code twice for the same thing.
Now one can enter lets say an icao code into a textfield on that page. And of course this shouldnt trigger the sim keybindings.

Ive tried various ways now to disable them, like preventDefault() targeted at the UI element of the window etc. But for whatever reason it doesnt seem to work.

Do you have a tip how i can do that? I cant seem to find much about this in the sdk docu.

I have this so far. That would work for ingame UI input fields (such ive created via my own script in the toolbar code). But that doesnt target iframes it seems.

Code:
this.ingameUi.addEventListener("focus", OnInputFieldFocus);
this.ingameUi.addEventListener("blur", OnInputFieldUnfocus);

The issue is the iframe. I would know how to do it, with own UI elements. But in an iframe the usual way to terget the elements doesnt seem to work.
