Mouse Scroll Wheel - Make zooming increment adjustable

Mouse Scroll Wheel - Make zooming increment adjustable

Can you please add an application option to set the sensitivity (zoom increment) of the mouse wheel.  The current setting (Inventor 2014) is too coarse for my tastes and forces me to use the LMB and F3, which is slower and not as slick as just using the mouse wheel.

 

Thanks.

Kind of torn on this one sounds good but also not.

 

 What happens if I want to zoom fast like now? Do I have to go change the settings every time?

 

 I like it but I don't because of that reason I like how fast I can zoom in and out..

 

 Have you looked into 3D connexion mouse?

Jletcher, I can only imagine the stress MS Word causes you by offering more than just the Times New Roman font!

 

Now that you mention it... I always listen to the same radio station on my way to work.  So, excuse me now while I go out to the parking lot and rip the knob off my car radio. 

 

Here's something... if you like the default zoom behavior...  LEAVE IT.  For those of us that are consistently frustrated by it - we'd like the option to adjust it.  C'mon!

No have no issues with MS but the interface..

 

 So would that be a no on the mouse?

 

 So why did they not leave my classic interface? Many loved it and hate the new interface.. But yet they took out my option....

 

 Who is the us? One vote..

Would be nice to have some adjustability to this, especially for those without a 3D Connexion device.

 

Personally, I use a 3D Connexion device, but also occasionally zoom with the mouse.  I often work on rather physically large pieces of equipment that also have small details in localized areas.  I tune the sensitivity of the zoom on the 3D device more for the smaller-scale work, and use the coarser zoom of the mouse wheel to move to different areas of the large assembly.

 

If I had the feature requested, I'd probably use it the opposite way, making the mouse zoom slightly more coarse than it already is, so I can zip around to different areas of the assembly even faster.
