How do I disable zooming when holding left/right mouse button and using scroll wheel?

Post by NM64 »

According to this older bug-report thread, it sounds like the function of zooming when holding left or right click and using the scroll wheel even when the scroll wheel is set to a different function is an intentional feature rather than a bug: So I'm wondering how I may go about disabling this function in XnView MP since I have my scroll wheel set to scroll up/down which is something I sometimes like to use when in the middle of making selection rectangles.

(also I specifically use the Linux version of XnView MP if that makes any difference)

its hardcoded combination
hold LMB/RMB + scroll Wheel = zoom

guess its better to add it to the Settings with options:
- Do nothing
- Zoom in/out [default?]
- Previous/next file
see Settings - interface - make Mouse controls explicit
