Rick Prescott Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 (edited) Since I generally record voiceovers, I rarely have enough tracks to require vertical scrolling. But with long audio takes, I need horizontal scrolling almost constantly. It would be much appreciated if I could remap the mouse wheel to accomplish this, perhaps under Preferences > Customization > Keyboard Shortcuts, or thereabouts. Thanks.

Rick Prescott Posted April 15, 2022 Author Share Posted April 15, 2022 Yes, Jorge, Alt+Scroll Wheel does perform this function now, but that requires two hands. I would like to remap so it can be done with just the scroll wheel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Prescott Posted April 21, 2022 Author Share Posted April 21, 2022 (edited) Yikes. I'm an idiot. It's not horizontal SCROLLING I'm looking for, but horizontal ZOOMING. In other words, remap from VERTICAL SCROLLING to HORIZONTAL ZOOMING. The latter is what currently can be done with Alt+Scroll Wheel. It is also the function that I need more or less every time I reach for the mouse... I'm quite aware that this remap is not currently possible. (I already have a side-scrolling mouse, remapped for other functions.) Edited April 21, 2022 by Rick Prescott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starship Krupa Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 I have a Logitech Marathon Mouse M705, which has 4 buttons plus wheel. Pushing the wheel left and right scrolls horizontally. I have the 2 extra buttons on the left side programmed for Ctrl and Alt, which makes for some mighty fine single-handed mouse-only operation. Any reputable 4-button mouse should be able to get you there, using app-specific button assignments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
