[SOLVED...mostly] Autopilot not working? P3Dv4.4
I cannot get the autopilot modes to work except for the barometer, and altitude selection. Also the 2D mode shows a transparent panel. Is anyone else having this issue in P3Dv4.4 or know of a fix?

If I pop out the autopilot fuse and put it back in, the autopilot starts up showing the PFT 0/1/2/3 then all the lights test correctly with a beeping sound, then the Pitch mode is red for around 30 seconds then turns off, the screen shows the alt or barometer values but none of the buttons work (AP, HDG, NAV, APR, REV, ALT, UP, DOWN, ARM). The only buttons that work are BARO and the two Knobs
I have tried switching planes to the default Maule then back again.

Re: [SOLVED] Autopilot not working? P3Dv4.4
Found the fix in case anyone else needs help - fixed by ensuring to set the set the Attitude Indicator correctly as well as the barometer setting, then wait for the 'P' to de-illuminate, then press and HOLD the AP button (a little tricky with TrackIR enabled)
The only remaining issue is the transparent display
