Brief description of the issue:

When using the zoom (default by mouse, for me its middle mouse button + right mouse button), the image freezes after zooming in and does not return automatically all the time as it was (sometimes it’s ok, sometimes it hangs). Since there is no button to zoom out, you have to go out to the outside view and return to the cockpit for normal zoom again. One of the patches broke it. An obvious bug. Previously it was like that as long as you pressed the mouse button it worked for a long time, the view then returned to its normal position, now it often freezes.

If you’re describing the issue I think you’re describing, I know what you mean.

I’ve found it happens depending on WHERE in the cockpit you right click to initialise the zoom.

Try clicking on “empty space” like the windshield or somewhere there is no interactive buttons, switches etc underneath.

Not entirely, because I also have this zoom (named “Focus VR” in MSFS) set as a button on the joystick, so I don’t operate the mouse cursor (actually you can’t see it then). Very often, this suspension of zoom view also occurs when looking close to a glass cockpit (e.g. G1000, G3X). Then he doesn’t want to come back. This didn’t used to be the case. :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

I have the same issue, I also notice that if the mouse is over some clickable item, say, the PMS750, zoom doesn’t work until the mouse is moved to a blank area. It’s been a problem for a long time, I forget which SU created it but it was some time ago.
There are many niggles like this for VR users that don’t seem to be addressed, what about a VR review Asobo?
