Simplify3D User Forum

Scrollwheel does not work for changing parameters in fff window, scaling/positioning pane, but works on machine window.

Win7 64bit, and i have reset settings.

I believe this was intentional as many users complained about accidentally changing an important setting with their scroll wheels or trackpads. You can still click in the box and use the up/down arrow keys if you want.

What???!!!!
I Don't use keyboard much when making profiles. It goes much quicker when not having to use the keyboard.

Why could they not have made it an option instead? You DON'T remove useful things, only add.

This is really stupid. I haven't seen more than perhaps 1 or 2 complaining in the forum on it.

I was really happy when it came a new version, and then they have REMOVED a nice thing (at least i think so).

There were a few complaints about it so i think they got rid of it. It was very easy to accidentally change settings. People complained of ruined prints from it. Its just one of those things i guess. You cant keep everyone happy. Just enter the values or use the up down arrows.

But if you have lets say 1000 users and 50 of them complain, do you really remove it then? The rest was probably happy.
I have never had any problems with it, just keep your fingers straight.

Unfortunately in the 3D printing world, if you make a few unintentional mistakes you can easily cause big damage to your printer. So I think it's much better to prevent these unintentional inputs.

And of course, you have similar functionality using arrow keys, but this ensures it is not a mistake

I would very much like to see this feature added back to the options. It probably would be best to have it as a disabled by default option, but the choice should be up to the user. Scaling is much quicker with a simple swipe of the scroll wheel but I can absolutely see how accidents can happen.

Thank you tonyjaco

It is also quicker on many other settings.

I also want it back (as an option).

Click and hold works on the up and down arrows
