The thing with that is you'll be out of sync with whats really going on in the cockpit. There are several ways to disable the autopilot and move to another a/p mode and I found that the buttons were out of sync most of the time. If you look at the buttons I made there are "on" versions of them if you decided you wanted to do what you asked.

What i would like to see are specific profiles for the the different aircraft in Lock On. You made it usable for any aircraft right now (universal )... but i would like to have only the buttons that i need for my A-10 for example.
I'm working on separate profiles that are specific to each plane. One for the F15, A10, Su and Migs combined (since they're all basically the same cockipit) and the Su and Su25T. I'll be doing panels that look realistic with the buttons superimposed on top. Zorlac is working on removing the outline around each button so that will just be one more nice feature for TouchBuddy.

Since the 199th profile was my first real effort at making a profile, I see plenty of things that need to be added/changed. You have to realize that I have a full HOTAS setup and stuff like radar scan isn't implemented into the profile because those functions are mapped to my HOTAS. When I make the individual profiles I'll try to be all inclusive with the commands for each plane, that way the new guy who buys a touchscreen can just choose his "plane" config and fly. No muss, no fuss.
