Unable to place objects - Kliment - 13.03.2010

I just reinstalled IL-2 and Unified Installer and when I attempt to make missions I am no longer able to just click the mouse and drag the map around and I cannot place objects on the map at all.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Control click to place, and (I think) right click to drag.

First off, I removed the duplicate post, you don't need duplicate posts in different sections to get a response...

Now, select an object, click the map, hover your mouse where you want the object and hit 'insert'

Cheers

Might be your config.ini has been corrupted

Check under the [hotkey Builder] section in the config.ini by opening it with notepad,
it is a list of shortcuts that can be used in the game.

I highlighted in red the shorcuts used for placing objects on the map,
check to make sure your shorcuts are the same as below.

This is the shorcut(hotkey builder) section from a config.ini of the stock 4.07 game,my backup config
