How do I change mouse scroll wheel behavior?

I'm an experienced user of Photoshop and digtial audio workstations, but brand new to Adobe Premere Pro. I would like to change Premiere's default behavior of the mouse scroll wheel. For example, I would like the scroll wheel to horizontally expand the timeline without having to hold the alt key. How do I do this? I've been all over Premiere's settings, but no joy.

 

Thanks.

There is no user-setting for that.

Hey,

This actually is a setting you can change. Go into preferences, then select the timeline page, and from there choose the drop down next to, "Timeline mouse scrolling". I believe this will help you with the problem. Sorry I'm two years late.

Might want to read the original post again.

OP is asking to expand (or rather zoom in and out) horizontally with the mouse scroll without ALT.

See Neils answer.

Thanks for the reply, Neil. I was afraid of that. I guess I've gotten spoiled by super-customizable apps, e.g., REAPER, Blender. Still enjoying Premiere though. 🙂
