"Selected Altitude" Push. Why is this answer so hard to find. When you hover over in a A320, the text reads "Selected Altitude" but then it's nowhere in the keyboard setup... Internet search showed nothing. Spent 3 hours looking for and testing different commands and searching online but nothing... My throttle has the "Pull" setup but I want to use another button for "push." Any help...VERY welcome...
#Keyboard Command for "Managed" "Selected Altitude" - Push.

which a320 are you using?
Mostly fbw
FlyByWire, that is.
If I just knew what it's called in control commands setup, I could assign it. For me, this is probably the most-used button...
Also A320 Neo
FBW A32NX
and you are trying to assign it to a keyboard key within the sim or a joystick button using mobiflight?
the flybywire uses customs commands for the autopilot functions and im not sure if the default command are linked. i've looked at the flybywire docs and AP_ALT_HOLD_ON should work for the altitude push
Tried that in default. Does not do it.
AP_ALT_HOLD_ON looks like the Mobi lookup for that command... At one point I saw a little utility that watches commands in-simulator... can't seem to find it now.
You can use the developer tools in MSFS2020 to find the code for the input events. See this blog post for details on how to do it: Uncovering input events using the MSFS2020 model behavior dialog
That blog post shows how to look up commands
i've just done some tests in sim with the flybywire and altitude hold on will trigger the altitude push and altitude hold off with trigger the pull
You can use alt+g when your mouse is on top of the button and it will show the event in the window
Alt g just triggers the gear
You have to follow the blog post
got it
the ctrl+g does not work in the flybywire or it never does for me. luckily their docs are great - https://docs.flybywiresim.com/fbw-a32nx/a32nx-api/a32nx-flightdeck-api/

Didn't get anywhere with that...not something I've dug into before... At this point, I guess I'm wondering if anyone knows the keyboard command for the a320 neo
altitude hold on will trigger the push on the flybywire
Agree Ctrl-G does not work on the FBW A320.
Is this what you are looking for?

That's the fbw command and matches my findings. My flight controlers show up in the setup and I have tried getting them working through mobi... No success with it yet
I wonder if the default controller, in this case (Thrustmaster & CH Yojke), override mobi controller edits? Has anyone had success doing this?
Activate logging mode in MF. How is the button press registered in the log. Normally, it should be just one press and one release event in the log for each press and release.
