Unable to zoom

[airernie]

I am attempting to assign a joystick button to one of the Zoom functions.  I've tried all of the functions and multiple buttons, yet nothing seems to happen.  If I assign something like the parking brake to a button then it works fine. 

Not sure if this is a MSFS issue or that I need to do something different.   I'm testing it with the stock CJ4.

Thanks..

Many of the camera controls in MSFS are not working when assigned externally, including the zoom controls.
There are also some MF presets for zoom, but these also don't seem to work.

Therefore to control zoom, you can either assign in MSFS, or assign in FSUIPC7 to the default key assignments. So, for example, to assign to cockpit zoom-in, assign your button to send the equals key ('='), and for zoom-out, assign to the hyphen/dash key ('-').

Thanks.  This was actually one time I was hoping that it something that I was doing incorrectly. 🙂
