Mouse Wheel Zoom Direction

[MikeC]

Please add a toggle switch in the Work Environment settings to reverse the mouse wheel direction for zooming.  SketchUp has it. I really can't imagine it would take much.  There's probably a flag in the API for doing just that.  See attached image...

Hey @MikeC, are you on Mac or Windows? Please add a signature!

I sense that you are on Mac tho, because this is a common gripe in the Mac world, where the global setting of the scroll direction is not differentiated between touchpad and mouse.

For that I recommend you for the time being the powerful app "BetterTouchTool".

Hey @runxel, thanks for the reply.  I had a look at that tool.  I don't think it will work, but it did set me on path that led me to discover that my Logitech MX Master 2S mouse can be custom configured for each application on my Mac.  Tada! I set the mouse wheel to operate the way I want. 🥳🎉

Of course, this only solves the problem for me because I have this mouse.  I still think Graphisoft should add the feature in their Settings.

Well done. I totally agree, this should be a built-in option. But I guess that will take time.... 😴 Until then there are luckily some saviors tho.
