Sorry for resurrecting this, but I was just searching for the same topic!

I don't meant to be argumentative, but have you seen how configurable CAD software can be in terms of editor setup? Pretty much everything can be changed, from what all mouse buttons do on click, on click and hold, double click etc etc. I'm not saying the LabVIEW IDE needs to be that configurable, but I think there's a valid argument for it being more configurable than it is currently - especially as it's the kind of software people can spend their entire working weeks in.

 

 

This change for me basically prioritises the ease of one function over the other; zooming over scrolling. IMO, it should be the other way around, especially since zooming should be of limited use to anyone that's following good practices.

I could imagine both using Ctrl+Mouse wheel but it's context sensitive, if inside a case, scroll cases, else zoom.

That will lead to: "why can't I zoom sometimes" type of questions and irritations.

I can't wait to to see what kinds of block diagrams we're going to see here in the forums.
