The reason the default wheel setup is ridiculous (to me) is that it seems a waste to reserve the WHEEL and the SHIFT-WHEEL for vertical and horizontal panning when any-direction panning when it is already the function of the right-drag mouse button (again it requires just one hand instead of two). I want zooming to be the default wheel function (instead of vertical panning).
BTW, you can also "get much better zoom control" when using keyboard Page-Up or Page-Down if you hold down the SHIFT key (been that way for years).

Now changing the non-key, shift key, ctrl key versions of the wheel mouse would be good if zoom is your number 1 use for the wheel.

Does anybody know how to change the way the mouse wheel functions in DXP?
I want to zoom using the wheel without also having to hold down the CTRL key. The default setting is ridiculous requiring both mouse and keyboard to zoom. If I really wanted to use the keyboard, I'd just use the Page Up/Down keys - that only takes one hand.
