Values for “Zoomfactor” can be set between 3 and 100. Figure 3 shows the drawing display if the “Zoomfactor” is set to 70, zoomed out from the initial display as shown in Figure 1, rotating 1 click of the scroll wheel. The drawing zoomed out by 1 click of the scroll wheel.īy setting the “Zoomfactor” to a higher value, this will have the effect of zooming in and out quicker, therefore taking less movement of the scroll wheel. Figure 2 shows the drawing display if the “Zoomfactor” is set to 10. This behavior is independent of the Single Page Mode setting. Setting the “Zoomfactor” to a lower value would result in a smaller zoom increment and will have the effect of slower zooms, therefore taking more movement of scroll wheel to “Zoom” in and out. Continuous Mode: Sets the mouse wheel behavior in continuous mode. The drawing in Figure 1 is displayed using “Zoom Extents”, so the boundary is just visible.

The scroll wheel zoom rate is controlled by the system variable “Zoomfactor” (all one word), the default value is set to 60. Im finding this very annoying because sometimes I flick the scroll wheel to go to the. “How can I change the rate of zooming in and out when using the scroll wheel?” RE: Change the Scroll Wheel to Scroll instead of Zoom attrofy (IS/IT-Management) 14 Sep 06 10:59 Some of Logitechs drivers have an option in the Control Panel > Mouse that changes the behavior of the middle mouse wheel. In XFCE4 desktop environments, alt +scroll wheel zooms my entire desktop.

This is another question that cropped up during a recent training course.

Mouse wheel zooms instead of scrolls
