Alphabetical searches in FMB object/squadron lists? - aviatorsneah - 13.01.2010

In FMB, when you open up the long lists of objects or squadrons to select one, you have to manually scroll through them all until you find what you want. is there a way to select one alphabetically?

For example, if I want to select US Army from the squadron list, is there a way to simply type "US" while the pulldown menu is selected, and have that regiment come up?

Same with objects, lets say I want to select Object 1203, is there a way to have the list selected and type "1...2...0....3" and have the list jump to Object 1203 without scrolling with the mouse? It'd save a lot of time. Hope this makes sense, didn't really know how else to explain it.

I always wondered why such an option wasn't built into ANY of the game's menus. It would make sense with QMB, FMB,... - everywhere!
