Reversing "Zoom" direction on the mouse scroll wheel?

[Chrisb222]

I'm using Chief on my PC laptop remotely this weekend. 99.9% of my work is done on my office Mac. The most annoying difference is that the Zoom operates in the opposite scroll wheel direction. It's maddening, and I'm looking for a way to reverse the scroll wheel on the PC. I checked the hardware settings in the control panel, but no luck. Win 10 home.

I don't see a simple way to do it with win10 or win11, which is kind of silly, but this might be worth a shot? https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/set-the-mouse-scroll-direction-to-reverse-natural/ede4ccc4-3846-4184-a86d-a028515040c0

 

For what it's worth, I use a Logitech g604 mouse and you can use the Logitech pc app to change the scroll direction and customize the buttons pretty easily.

This issue needs to have an enhancement done to the software.

 

I'm not sure who came along at what point in history and decided that the original convention of which direction was which regarding mouse wheel scroll and zoom, and frankly it just doesn't even matter.  Let's not argue about who is right and who is wrong (CA is flat out wrong), just give us the option to invert it so that for those of us who use more than ONE program with a mouse scroll wheel, we can have consistency among all of our installs...

Just do it in Windows Settings.  Windows 11 below.  Probably similar in 10.

Can the Aussies chime in on this? Which direction does it scroll down there?
