Zoom Function Freezes

[skudrunner]

I am new to A2A Simulations have just purchased the C172 Sim (but am a licensed pilot). I am running the sim under FSX and have a CH products Flight Sim Yoke. While doing my preflight the zoom function froze. I've heard of this happening before and I believe that there is a key command or a combination of keys that unfreezes this. Would appreciate some advice. Thanks!!

Hello,

if the zooming will sudden not work, its normally because the sim has 'lost focus'. Essentially the system thinks the sim is now in the background, like a back or minimised window. Youc an get focus back by simply moving the mouse and clicking on the sim somewhere.

Many thanks, Lewis...the frozen zoom happens sporadically so I'll wait until it happens again to apply your fix.

It'll be happening because you are pushing a button or knocking the mouse and accidentally clicking off the sim, hence the lost focus and why it can be a rare thing to happen.

thanks,
