DCS Scratchpad

Resizable and movable DCS World in-game Scratchpad for quick persistent notes - especially useful in VR.

Installation

Copy the Scripts folder into your DCS Saved games folder.

Usage

• Toggle the scratchpad with CTRL+Shift+X
• Use Esc to remove the text field focus, but keep the scratchpad open

Settings

Some settings can be changed in your DCS saved games folder under Config/ScratchpadConfig.lua (if the file does not exist, start DCS once after mod installation):

• hotkey change the hotkey used to toggle the scratchpad
• fontSize increase or decrease the font size of the Scratchpads textarea

Scratchpad Content

The Scratchpads content is persisted into Scratchpad\0000.txt (in your saved games folder; if the file does not exist, start DCS once after mod installation/upgrade). You can also change the file in your favorite text editor before starting DCS.
