Ability for Disable Program Monitor Zoom Settings

Please add the following settings
1. Ability to disable zoom on the program window or change mouse scroll wheel behavior. While scrubbing on the timeline with the mouse wheel it's prone to accidentally moving the cursor over the video and unintentionally zooming causing a frustrating experience.

2. Setting to disable the nodes on audio transitions in the sequence timeline. They make it more difficult to make edits in the timeline.

Why would you have to restart the whole program? You just chose "fit" in the resize options and then it snaps back to original aspect. It's still annoying as heck and UNBELIEVABLE Adobe hasn't introduced the ability to disable this auto zoom feature after all time. But if you have to restart the whole programs something else is going on with your system.

Wow ... you have to restart?

 

I've not seen anyone else with that ... you simply scroll or click "Fit" ... and get back to work. But Fit doesn't work once you scroll?

Everyone's mileage always varies ...

Has this problem been addressed? We have been suffering this "feature upgrade" for a while now with no relief in sight. Every time that we accidentally scroll one millimeter ourside the scroll area the zoom is unrecoverable with no way to undo the zoom and we must restart the whole program. It's a huge time drain. Please help.

Sure thing, @Ryan Fritzsche. I tracked those that are responsible for the function and reached out interally.

 

Cheers,

Hi @jessenicoli Updating the status of this Idea. The first issue is affecting my workflow, as well. The second issue needs to be filed separately, if you don't mind. @jessenicoli. I'd be happy to advocate for that.

 

Thanks,
Kevin

Hey @CoachNick,

That is my issue too. I will advocate for a change as this affects me several times per session. It knocks me out of my workflow. I already let the team know that I'm passionate about this one.

 

Cheers,
Kevin

As topic, does anyone know how to disable this function? It is very annoying that the program monitor size change when you accidentally scroll on your magic mouse.

The issue for me is that I'll be hovering over either the program monitor or Projects window and accidentally move my finger up or down on my Magic Mouse - and it zooms in. Before I realized this was a new feature, you can imagine the confusion when I thought it was cropping the frame on its own. So this feature isn't the time saver you might think it is as I'm constantly zooming in when I'm just trying to move the cursor somewhere and my finger happens to move half a centimeter down at the same time. The ability to turn this function off is an imperative. Thanks.
