Mouse Control Zoom
Mouse Control Zoom
(OP)
I have always had a problem with the scroll wheel in MDT. MDT should start and use the scroll wheel as the zoom function (which I like very much). However, quite often, after a short period of time, it reverts back to the up and down scroll. Does this happen to anyone else? Does anyone have any idea on how to get it to revert back to the zoom instead of the scroll? I know it has to be a kind of snafu between the standard windows mouse set up and MDT's settings, but it didn't used to be an issue.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Great feature but annoyingly glichy. I tend to save, close then reopen the drawing. That usually fixes it but is an unsatisafactory solution.

Now for my question...is this in and out feature only for intellimouse? If not, how do you activate it??
RE: Mouse Control Zoom
I believe it is for any type of wheeled mouse, not necissarily intellimouse. I have a Logitech at home and it does the zoom just fine (with the exception of the glitch).

If you disable the scroll bars in autoCAD the "scroll problem" will disappear.
To do this go to "tools" then click on "options" click on the "display" tab, then uncheck the "Display scroll bars in drawing window" box, then click on OK.
I have not had the "scroll problem" reappear since I did this.

The trick that Cheez recommended works like a charm too.
