Hi,

works perfect for me… with trackpad and also Magic/Mighty Mouse (without 
pinch-to-zoom for the mice of course).
Tested with the pinch-to-zoom wxWidgets patch on 3.0.2, KiCad changes merged 
into 5249.

I would really love to see this getting merged to main line.
It not only makes panning more OSX like, but also is a great usability 
improvement (at least on OSX where nowadays all mice/trackpads do have x/y 
scrolling capability).


Regards,
Bernhard
