Hi allDoes anyone know how to increase or decreas the zoom in the virtual cockpit?, in FS9 there was a menu item called views that would enable you to do this?. ThanksPaul

Have you tried '+' and '-'? Works for me.Gary

To be a little clearer: Be sure to click on some inert part of the cockpit (something that doesn't operate a guage or open a screen), and then press + or -. The +/- keys are modifiers that work with a range of commands. You select what you want +/-'ed, and then you use +/-. For instance, press R, and then + or - and then you can control your simulation rate. The zoom is tied into the cockpit visual istelf, which is why you usually have to click on the cockpit first. That will do it for FSX on its own. Of course, if you have the money to spare, a TrackIR will help even more.Jeff ShylukSenior Staff Reviewer, Avsim

Cheers guys, i have just got the triple head to go and its excellent with fs9, will try the above though, thanks.Paul

Thought this was a FSX forum!

ZlanedWht dont you read the thread properly before making a childish comment!!!! it is a FSX forum, the question I saked was about FSX..if you read it,I then went on to to comment that that I had TH2G working well with FS9 anf woulf try the answers supplid by the 2 people who DID READ IT properly....anyway what was the point of your post, are you bored or something?Paul

Myself, I center the mouse in the monitor, hold spacebar, and zoom with the mousewheel. Also I use this for any panning I do in the VC. Hope this helps!

Cheers allOr to the ones that made sensible comments, have now gor it sorted for both FSX and FS9Paul
