Question on mouse scrolling.


 

Posted

Just really curious...

How come i can use my mouse wheel to scroll in WW and chat in game, but not to zoom in/out with camera? I've checked options and it's enabled and all.

It should zoom the camera IF the pointer isn't over a chat window... You MIGHT need to click on the screen though...

tried it FFM, it refuses to zoom camera. but window scrolling works fine. Think it's kinda odd imo that it works for one thing, but not the other.

That's rather.. odd... Have you tried reinstalling your mouse drivers?

yeah :|

Scrolling to zoom stopped working when i got a new mouse, but now i can scroll chat windows and WW, so i don't see why zoom shouldn't start working too :|

Hmm.. Sounds like it might be something in your new mouse drivers that's causing it then. Have you gone through the various options in your mouse control panel, see if there's any special function being attached to the scroll wheel?

Or checked your options in CoH to ensure that zoom-scrolling hasn't been turned off?

My bad for asking, Sapph.

Agreed with FFM, sounds like there may be something peculiar in your mouse driver settings.

Well, i just uninstalled the mouse driver and the problem persists :|

Did you uninstall it in safe mode? You usually need to remove system level drivers like that in there, or it doesn't really uninstall them.
