Side-scrolling using a 2D mousewheel only does regular vertical scroll action

I have the Logitech G5 mouse. It has a 2D scroll wheel that can provide vertical and horizontal scrolling. Horizontal scrolling with this mouse doesn't work, and worse does regular scrolling instead of just nothing.

also consider a further option to ignore wheel events entirely

One early result from the usability group: Mac users seem really annoyed by the fact that navigation doesn't work as they are used to with their multi-touch mousepads.

Switching the navigation settings in the Fritzing properties only solves it half-way (horizontal scrolling still doesn't work), and it's hard to find.

So let's make standard Mac-style navigation the default for Fritzing on Mac: Scroll up/down => vertical scroll Scroll left/right => horizontal scroll Alt + scroll up/down => zoom Alt + scroll left/right => zoom Optional: multitouch scale => zoom

How about using GIMP bindings for Linux? They are:

Ctrl + Scroll up/down => zoom Scroll up/down => vertical scroll Scroll left/right => horizontal scroll Shift + Scroll any => swapped horizontal and vertical (i.e. S-up/down === left/right)

r5056 . now checking orientation of mouse wheel event to determine horizontal or vertical scrolling. Combining comments 3 and 4, there are now two choices for mapping mouse wheel behavior: scroll primary and zoom primary. Zoom primary is default under windows, scroll primary is default on the other platforms.

Scroll primary means that if there are no keys down, mouse wheel events are interpreted as scroll events. A shift key will swap the axis of the scroll. Alt or Control (Command) down will trigger a zoom instead of a scroll.

Zoom primary means that if there are no keys down, mouse wheel events are interpreted as zoom events. Alt or Control (Command) down will trigger a scroll instead of a zoom, and a shift key will swap the axis of the scroll.

Using the 'Guess' or 'Pure' options for wheel behavior works well for two-finger drag (horizontal/vertical scroll) and pinch-to-zoom on a trackpad in macOS Monterey. I'm not sure why neither of these is the default setting in Fritzing (1.0.3).

Was this a first time install, or did you already have an older version of Fritzing installed before?

I added the 'Guess' and 'Pure' options in Version 1.0.0, so it is a relatively new feature, and after there were no severe issues, we made it a default on 1.0.2 or 1.0.3, but not overriding old settings. (if I remember correct, it might as well still be an open ticket somewhere.)

Thanks, @KjellMorgenstern. The install wasn't clean, but I'm glad to hear it will be the default setting.
