    Mistake in the title: I meant "Eye Tracker 5 Plugin - ..."

    When I got my Tobii Eye Tracker 5, only the 4C plugin was available, but it worked very well. I have now installed the ET 5 plugin, and I find that working even better (i.e. smoother) than the 4C one....

    BUT:
    When I use the assigned "Start/Stop" button (set to Hold View / Keep Tracking), the 4C plugin would send me to the current tracked position, when re-starting the tracking data transmission. This is very good, because I can just resume from a temporarily held view, for example for making inputs or adjustments in the cockpit (yes... flightsim guy here :)

    The ET 5 plugin holds the view fine, when stopping tracking data transmission, but always goes to the default 0 point / centered view when re-starting it. This is actually the same as choosing the "Stop Tracking" option. This way I always have to adjust my view again after re-startin the tracking. That really is a shame, because otherwise the tracking seems to be considerably smoother.

    Maybe you can look into this for an update to the ET 5 plugin..

    Kind regards,
    Joerg

    Did you find a fix for this? I am having the same issue.

      No, not really.. Meanwhile I take it as a feature, rather than a fault :)
