Using track ir FSRealistic and the pmdg 737, at some point in the flight the mouse wheel zoom gets stuck.
Sometimes i can fix it by using the wheel to turn a knob and other times it wont sort itself until a new flight.
Checking the camera views window from the Top bar it shows the input but then quickly resets to whatever % it got stuck at.
Any thoughts?
An update for FSReaslistic is now available ver 2.0.1 patch notes https://fsrealistic.wixsite.com/website/forum/announcements/fsrealistic-pro-v2-0-1-is-now-released
Just had same issue today, but I do not use trackIR. Using PMDG 737. Only in cockpit view the mouse wheel zoom gets stuck. If I go to external view and then back to cockpit, I get once chance to make a zoom adjustment with mouse wheel, and then it will ‘lock’ again and unable to adjust.

Ok so maybe its not TrackiR related, ill have to test without and see if i have the same issue.
Do you perhaps use FSRealistic, i also use that, just trying to find some common issue other then the PMDG - although it could be the 737, i know custom control profile in the manual is suggested, perhaps using the default is causing the issue.
Yeah I just started using FSRealistic … could be related. I also just updated MSFS to latest version. My guess is either PMDG, FSRealistic, or the new update.
BTW, I’ve been on a 4 hour flight and the issue sorted itself out on its own at some point, so now is working on the same flight.
Weird bug…
Just started using FSR to, and dont recall having the issue before, maybe test a flight without it.
FS Realistic confirms the PRO version has a bug with mouse zoom. They are working on a fix. Some users are reporting turning off the overspeed effect fixes the problem.

Ah ok cool, glad they are aware.
Thanks for sharing!
I was thinking this was a TrackiR issue, this thread probably should be moved to 3rd party addons
Make certain that the mouse curser or pointer is not resting on a selectable item in the cockpit. If it is, then the zoom will be disabled until you move it to take the focus off of the selectable item. For example, the pointer just happens to be floating above the switch, or button, then the zoom will not work. slightly move the mouse so that the curser is over a blank, non animated part of the view, and then zoom will work again.
