Re: [PEDA] Wheeling with DXP
The newer MS mice also have side-wheel motion now. The wheel itself can tilt, which can be used to side-scroll documents. Very nice. Only problem is that it doesn't work through an Avocent Autoview 400 :( -- Dean Carpenter deano at areyes com 94TT :) - Original Message - From: "Jim Monroe" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Protel EDA Forum" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, June 01, 2004 9:03 AM Subject: Re: [PEDA] Wheeling with DXP > Tony - I guess I didn't make myself clear.

Re: [PEDA] Wheeling with DXP
Tony - I guess I didn't make myself clear. I do want to use the wheel for zooming, but I want it to be the default function for the wheel so that I don't need to hold the CTRL key to use it (mouse zooming with one hand instead of two!). 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).

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.
