LSogl Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I know that the mouse wheel can be set to zoom (instead of scroll) in Affinity Designer but I need to do the same in Affinity Photo and I can't seem to find the command in the Preferences menu. Am I looking in the wrong place? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tip: Typing "zoom" in the preferences search box will highlight "Tools," making it easy to find: I don't know if that works on Windows, though.

a_f Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 (edited) However, (on a M1 Macbook Pro) after set under Preferences >Tools to "Use mouse wheel to zoom" – the change does not get applied. At least not when using a (2nd gen) Apple "Magic Mouse". Is this only me? Edit: I have to add: does not get applied as expected. It does not work for <cmd+mouse wheel (scroll)> but it does for <option+mouse wheel (scroll)>. Edited February 15, 2023 by a_f Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
