How do make the mouse scroll button zoom in and out focusing where every the crosshair  is on the page . I saw it the other day on a computer and looked liked it saved alot of time

RE: mouse zoom

Its a combo of mouse driver and AutoCAD setting MBUTTONPAN. Set MBUTTONPAN to 1 and then adjust the mouse driver for the middle button. May take some trial and error.

RE: mouse zoom

Every one I've ever used automatically assumed those props upon installation so the scroll button already worked fine.

RE: mouse zoom

My middle button is set to mbuttonpan=0 giving me access to the options pop-up menus, and I still have access to my middle scroll-wheel (for zooming in & out). Check your mouse driver, and what each button is set for. Scrolling and Clicking on the middle button is usually 2 seperate functions on the same wheel/button.
good luck-
