Reverse trackpad scroll direction in Autocad 2024

Hi Everyone ! 

 

I've found a solution to my problem but it was from 2013...and the solution no longer works 😕

 

> Is there anyways to change the scroll direction of the trackpad in Mac 2024 Autocad? It is just weird having your OS works one way but Autocad works the opposite. And I used this scrolling way since forever so even if I try to get used to it I lost a considerable amount of time.

 

(For accuracy : it is not a problem of scroll direction of the mouse wheel for zoom operations solving with the zoomwheel command).

 

Hope you can help me with this 🙂

Thank you Everyone !

Hi @lucie_de ,

 

The option "Reverse zoom direction" works on my side at least with Magic Trackpad:

  • Zoom Out
    • Pinch open
    • Option key + 2-finger drag up
  • Zoom In
    • Pinch closed
    • Option key + 2-finger drag down

Will try later with MacBook Trackpad.

Hi Maxim ! 

Thank you but it's not a zoom direction problem, only "scroll" !

With the 2 fingers on the trackpad I just want to move down in my model window when I slide my fingers down 😕

Hi Lucie,

 

This app seems to work correctly with AutoCAD 2025 on macOS Ventura.

With this settings:

2 fingers on the trackpad move (pan) down inside the drawing canvas.
