With the vast majority of gnome applications zoom is rarely used, or not at all. Scroll is much more common. It pays in terms of usability to have the most common actions accessible with as little hassle as possible. That's why binding the wheel without modifier to vertical scroll makes sense in the context of Gnome HID. By contrast, zoom is one of the most common GUI actions in gschem and pcb. There is a down side to the bindings suggested by the Gnome HID: You always need both hands to navigate the layout or circuit. IMHO, this downside outweighs the benefit of bindings compatible to other applications. BTW, Peter Clifton has this defined in his localized branch of pcb+gl. ---<)kaimartin(>--- -- Kai-Martin Knaak tel: +49-511-762-2895 Universität Hannover, Inst. für Quantenoptik fax: +49-511-762-2211 Welfengarten 1, 30167 Hannover http://www.iqo.uni-hannover.de GPG key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?search=Knaak+kmk&op=get _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
