Space Bar + mouse panning and zoom not working

[doublebubble 20]

Hi, no idea what has happened, all of a sudden I've lost the ability to use the space bar + mouse combination to pan around and zoom, my hat button still operates on my joystick ( Saitek X52 ) but the key board and mouse no longer work, has anyone else ran into this issue? I have not changed anything that I'm aware of. P3DV4.3, win10.

 

Regards Rod.

Make sure that you didn't disable the controllers in the sim (Options->Controls->Other->Enable Controllers). If you uncheck this box, for example because you are using a third party app for joystick assignment, then this will disable the mouse view controls too.

While in the controls dialog, check that you have the Space key still assigned to the event "Mouse - control view direction (on/off)".

Also, some planes with FMS give you the ability to use your keyboard to type on them, and if you activate that feature, then normal keyboard functions won't work until you turn it off. That caught me out once on the QW787.

Thank you all.  It was my keyboard connected to my FMC.  I must have inadvertently connected it as I rarely use this feature.
