ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:
When flying the plane and hitting buttons on your controller it will also use those same inputs to manipulate the EFB even when it isn’t being looked at or maximized. There is no keybinds to unbind to stop the Xbox controller from interacting with the EFB. Every time I use LT or RT for rudder my EFB map zooms in and out. Or anytime i look around the cockpit. a menu in the EFB will constantly be scrolling.

Make it so I can unmap and map custom buttons to the EFB zoom
If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:
• it happens all the time and it’s very frustrating and there’s no fix. I shouldn’t be zooming in on the efb with LT and RT that’s just stupid, make a + and - on the EFB so you can zoom with with that by clicking it in cursor mode

This happens even if you unbind the triggers to zoom in/out of the map in the settings. Are there separate EFB control settings? Doesn’t seem so.

+1 for me. Unbinded the zoom in and zoom out controls in the settings but it still happens.

Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
• Yes

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
• When operating the rudder (LT, RT), the EFB map keeps zooming in and out, even when you’re not locked onto it. The EFB should only be operable in Cursor Mode (with a gamepad), or when a mouse pointer is directly on the EFB screen.

Console players would be happy if this was fixed. But it doesn’t look like it will be fixed at the moment, and it’s quite annoying when you constantly see the map zooming in and out of the corner of your eye.
