• 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.

[FSUIPC] Reading current Addon Menu Entries

Hi All,

I have looked high and low and I have been unable to find any information dealing with this question.

I have created a small client that is used for a Active Flight Mapping tool I created for FSEconomy.com. Its basically just a position reporter that sends some basic information to a WCF service from FSUIPC, that can then be queried by a Silverlight Map application for Display. That all works just fine.

Now, my problem is that FSE uses a seperate client that adds a menu item to the Addon menu (FSX) and I would like to be able to query the menu item text collection to determine if the client is installed/started.

I have read how to ADD a menu item, looking for a hotkey slot with 0 in it, but what I want is to actually see what already exists in the menu list.

Is it possible to pull that data and look for non-zero slots and to examine the menu text entered there?

Thanks for your time.
