Double clicking the left or right mouse button while the mouse is over a
rotary knob will cause the knob to move immediately to its full left or
right position depending upon which mouse button has been used.
This functionality applies to all knobs that control brightness (display
units brightness knobs on SDCP, MCDU brightness, the three
PNL/FLOOD lighting controls).
Combined Push-Pull-Rotary Knobs:
In some cases, such as on the Flight Guidance Panel, there are knobs
that combine both push-pull and rotary operations into a single knob.
Occasionally there are multiple rotary knobs embedded into a single
location, such as the heading knob found on the Flight Guidance Panel,
or the panel light dimmer knobs.
In order to help clarify the operation of these knobs, you should note the
color of the Left/Right rotation cursor. The primary rotary function of the
knob will use white rotary icons as described above, while the
secondary rotary function on the knob will use gray shaded rotary
cursors as shown below:
Example:
As an example, the mouse operations on the heading knob are shown
in the following figure:
