SYMPTOMS
========

When you fly, the Point of View (POV) hat switch on your joystick may not pan
the views as expected.

CAUSE
=====

This behavior may occur if the "Pan a view" event is not assigned properly.

RESOLUTION
==========

To resolve this issue, assign the "Pan a view" event to the joystick. To do
this, follow these steps:

1. On the Main menu, click Settings.

2. Under Controls, click Assignments.

3. Scroll the Event list to "Pan a view".

   NOTE: If the Joystick column shows an assignment already, click to highlight
   the "Pan a view" line, and then click "Delete joystick assignment" to remove
   it.

4. Double-click "Pan a view" in the Assignment list.

5. Move the POV hat switch on the joystick to assign this event.

   NOTE: As you move the POV hat switch, POV 0 should be listed in the box.

6. Click OK.

7. Under the Repeat column, make sure the lever is all the way to the right.

8. Click OK.

movement.
