Mouse zoom inconsistencies

PostSun Apr 15, 2018 9:24 pm

Minor inconsistencies between the tabs really compound their negative effect on workflow.

Consider the shortcuts to adjust zoom with the mouse:

Edit page: alt-mousewheel
Fusion: ctrl-mousewheel
Color: alt-mousewheel on node graph and scopes, mousewheel on timeline (mouse modifier ignored).
Fairlight: alt-mousewheel
Deliver: alt-mousewheel

As far as I can tell, none of the mouse modifiers are configurable.

Although I much prefer ctrl-mousewheel for controlling zoom, it does seem like Fusion is the odd man out here.

It would also be cool if this same modifier worked in any pane that had resizable thumbnails.

I agree with the idea that actions common across pages need the same shortcut across pages, with the Edit page being the standard used.

The Fusion tab inherited Fusion's default. That particular behavior is customizable in Fusion's preferences, though. Fusion > Settings > User Interface.

Hopefully the control schema will be unified as the integration proceeds. Although I do hope that it remains customizable. I didn't notice anything in the DaVinci prefs about changing mousewheel behavior. I didn't explore very deeply, though.

Thanks! Although there is a further bug that if you swap ctrl and alt between pan and zoom, now alt-mousewheel zooms in the wrong direction (scrolling up zooms out instead of in and vice versa).
