Hi there folks! What a great discussion you are all having. So, if I may ask something along the lines of this topic (rather than make a new thread) to get some clarification...
So, looking at page 43 of the manual, it gives some clues as to the use of the center mouse wheel/button, but does seem to leave out some details, and makes no mention of the fact that some of the usage is affected by the View menu
Enable 2D Timeline Scroll option. So, I did a search of the manual, looking for
2D scroll,
2D timeline, etc. No match... Can anyone can tell me where this option is explained in the manual?
But if not, since I have RTFM and also S(earched)TFM, I would be so happy if someone is willing and happy to pass on some information in a considerate manner
So let me first describe what I have found on playing with the
Enable 2D Timeline Scroll. On the Edit Page, I find the following: -
1) When this option is
enabled, in the timeline I can use a) scroll or SHIFT scroll for vertical track scrolling, b) ALT scroll to horizontally zoom in/out, and c) center-press to drag.
2) When this option is
disabled, I can use a) SHIFT scroll for vertical track scrolling, b) ALT scroll to horizontally zoom in/out, c) center-press to drag, and d) scroll to move the timeline left and right.
So, my question is,
what exactly is the Enable 2D Timeline Scroll option in the View menu meant to do?
