Mouse Wheel Configuration
- Mouse Wheel Configuration - This is a list of mouse-wheel configurations (a mouse that normally has a wheel between two mouse buttons) for various actions on a PCB document, e.g. Ctrl + Mouse wheel to zoom the main editing window. To modify the mouse-wheel configuration, toggle the Button Configuration options as desired for each action. You can use these options to configure any keyboard button combination (Ctrl and/or Shift and/or Alt) that is required to be used along with the mouse wheel function (as listed in the grid) to perform that action.
