How to enable head move forward/back buttons with head tracking enabled?

[KPnutskgwanchos]

Sorry if this is in wrong section but wasn't sure. So I cant seem to have separate button mappings just for moving pilots head forward or backwards when head tracking is enabled. I disabled the Z axis in free track but still the buttons I have mapped for head forward/back only work I'd head tracking is completely off.  Any help much appreciated ??

You have to have head tracking disabled to adjust your head position. There's no way around that, that I know of.

Ok thanks...  Not great news

You can always map the zoom functions, not the same as head movement, but they work.

You hold numpad 5 or other key bound to a view and move view or  change fov   using  keys and mouse,  then press key to save and realise.  No need to disable trackir.

You can reposition your pilot head  while using a snap view key.  Example is  I use the 2 keypad for a 6 view over my right shoulder.  While Track IR is on.  Now as long as you keep holding that key you can then  use pilot head move keys to move left/right, up/down, fwd/back .   Once you let go of the snap key your head reverts back to track ir control,  so it's not permanent move.   You can pause your track ir, reposition your head and then resume tir,  your  centered head position will remain  where you moved to
