Mouse Control

[DaveH 14]

Having trouble controlling mouse position when scanning instrument panel.  View shifts around as I move mouse and sometimes I cannot even press a switch because mouse will not stay put.  Sometimes view will rotate. 

I believe I remember a post solving this problem, but searching I cannot find anything.

I think it has something to do with "Camera Controls" in the keyboard settings.

Can anyone suggest  where to look or what to do ?

Did you try pressing on the mouse wheel to stop the mouse from changing view while trying to adjust something?

If you zoom in close to a dial/knob/switch, it will stop moving and you can adjust it to your heart's content without it jumping around.

This is interesting to note. I have the issue of the left click, where sometimes when changing, for example, speed or heading or any other knob, etc it does not move!

I have a new Omen wireless mouse where this started, so I changed over to a wired mouse and it is still the same. Vert frustrating but it is only happening in cockpits.

Any ideas?

Thanks

This, I find, is perfect for mouse control:

Failing that, try having a look at this.

I like it. 

It's like the halo effect you get from a 1990's 1.2 MP camera.

I miss that stuff.

Everything these days seems to be "Super" whatever. . .

With me it is just trackir stuffing me up.

What would help is if the pop instrument windows included the controls.
