Map Zoom & Mouse Wheel
« on: May 06, 2009, 02:21:04 PM »
That about says it all.  I think that when our arrow is pointing at/on the clipboard map, we should be able to use the scroll wheel to zoom in and out.

BTW  I will put my wishes up anytime.  I recommend all others to do so also..   :)

Sure why not. The insert & delete buttons get annoying. :aok

Perhaps as a mapped feature for those of us who might not like it? Yes, I do support the wish.


P.S. Lukanian, it looks like you got over your affair with the Shift key. :D

You can map the scroll wheel to what ever you want.

But you would lose the default scroll function.  Which is in place for the Roster & Arena/Squad messages.

I have to admit, this would be nice to have on a mouse over on the map.

Really? It doesn't seem to interfere, being mapped as the throttle. May be because of modes I guess.

I have never actually tried it that way... But the one time I made mouse map changes, it screwed everything else out.  So I am assuming it would no longer scroll for roster......  Assuming is very, very bad.  If you try it, let me know?

And even if it did..... Now that I think about it, I usually grab the scroller with the pointer and click it up and down.

There is no problem with the INSERT/DEl keys.  I just think it would be kind of handy to have it on the wheel.  This is the wish list right.

I have the mouse wheel on the x52 pro throttle set as my elevator trim, and it has no effect on using it to scroll up or down in any list.

Scroll wheel would be nice -

You can however just right click on the + or - sign on the map to zoom in and out...left clicking makes the clipboard larger or smaller...

I see the usefulness of this feature, but I have map zoom in/out programmed to one of the 7,000 buttons available in my CH stick/throttle setup.   :D
