I currently have two issues related to cockpit view.
a) Zoom in/out in cockpit view does not work. Zooming with mouse wheel does not work and also the assigned keyboard commands do not work.
b) When I load a saved custom view the view is completely zoomed out. It’s exactly the same issue with every custom view I save. Below one of the views as an example.
Maybe the issues are related as kind of zooming is involved.
Does somebody have a solution for one or both of these issues? Thanks.
This cockpit view saved as custom view (by CTRL+ALT+1):
Saved custom view loaded (by ALT+1) then looks like this:
Here is a good link on how to create good working custom views.

Thanks for your reply @TheSevenflyer.
Finally, after an undesired and unneeded reinstall of the flight simulator (download of more than 200 GB) I found out what caused the issue (but don’t know why it happened).
Finally it crossed my mind to detach my X52 Professional HOTAS and the issue was gone. So I checked the assignments. Button 37 and 38 was assigned to zoom in/out functions of the cockpit camera. After removing these assignments the loaded cameras was OK. Also the keyboard command for zoom in/out was working again.
After that I reassigned those buttons again to the zoom in/out function and now the loaded camera views work fine even with the original button assignments.
So I can’t tell why this happened, but it was somehow related to button assignments for cockpit zoom on the X52 Professional HOTAS.
