Need Help: My mouse has no effect in F2 view

I have migrated all my software to a new gaming PC, and I've been able to get almost everything working as it used to.

Exception: When I'm in F2 view I can no longer change my camera around to look at the different aircraft from different angles and distances. I used this mostly during replays. Now, the mouse has no function at all in F2 view. This applies to all aircraft I use.
I've been through my options settings multiple times, but I cannot find where to correct this. I would be grateful for any help.

i'm sure you have checked this ; but for each aircraft there should be a heading "mouse" under the controls page,  in the axis view for that column  there should be a number of camera views; Mouse_X needs to be assigned to Camera Horizontal View , Mouse Y to Camera Vertical View, and Mouse Z to camera zoom view ...

You are wrong: I didn't check this as I've never touched these commands.

You are right: that was the problem.

I have never touched these bindings for any of my many aircrafts, and all except the Bf-109 carried over to the new PC without any glitch.
Strangely, I don't see any .diff.lua file for the mouse. Any idea where that's hidden?

Thanks anyway, you made my day!

its not hidden, the diff.lua is created automatically by dcs when you do your first mouse binding on the controls page. No file simply means that you have never defined such binding.

nice to be able to pay back all the support you have given the community over the years.

It's odd though because it should be the default, I have come across it a couple of times when i cleared the bindings, by mistake, and went through the same "arrrggh" moment
