Pan/Zoom with mouse wheel

Hi,

 

I want to be able to:

  • pan up/down with the mouse wheel
  • Pan left/right using shift and the mouse wheel
  • Zoom in/out using cmd and the mouse wheel

From other posts, I can see this has been an issue since 2017 at least. As with other CAD software, navigating (pan and zoom) with the mouse wheel is the most efficient and accurate method of traversing large designs. 

 

I know it's only been 4 years of development since people have been asked for this. But is there any intention of including this feature anytime soon? Or has it already been included and I just can't find it?

 

I would have thought this is pretty low hanging fruit in terms of development work. Especially as it is definitely a feature worth switching CAD software for - these are the little frustrations that bug designers day-to-day.

 

I am on a Macbook with a Logitec mouse. 

 

Thanks,

Hi, just wondering if this has been solved? I'm on a Mac (Monterey 12.3.1) and recently got a Logitech MX Master 3 mouse in hopes that the scroll wheel would zoom at the very least. Most other design software e.g. Photoshop, Illustrator etc allow for this. It feels awkward that turning the scroll wheel does nothing. 😅

@jorge_garcia Is there an update or workaround pertaining to this topic. I just recently got a Logitech MX Master 3 and I can't zoom with the scroll wheel while working on MacOS.

Hi @kmuzaZ2ZTG ,

 

I hope you're doing well. I'm afraid I don't have any new on this front. You can try going into Preferences > Electronics and play with the limit zoom factor check box as well mouse wheel zoom function. 

 

That's all I can think of at this time.

 

Best Regards,

For future googlers, this is solved: Options -> User Interface -> select "Legacy Mouse Wheel Mode"
