Reverse the Direction of Pan Setting

  • July 6, 2016

Seems like the pan direction should be in the direction  of the mouse movement (left <- left<- or right -> right->); as you would move a paper on a table.  Instead the movement is in the opposite (left <- right -> or right -> left<-).

Is there a way to reverse this pan setting?

The program is installed correctly.  Panning in AutoCAD &  Acrobat go about re-positioning of a view differently.  The manner in which AutoCAD uses panning seems more user friendly;  but maybe the solution is being more adaptable to a different way when using Acrobat.    


Not a complete answer, but, gets the correct action and accuracy. Right click and select the hand tool, or, select the hand from the tool bar at the top. You can then drag using the left mouse button.

Can you explain your problem?

Maybe not so much a problem as an alternate suggestion - unless if there is a override setting.  For instance in AutoCAD the pan movement seems more intuitive to the re-positioning  of a view. The cursor moves the view in the same direction as the cursor - much like the feeling of moving a sheet of paper on a table.  In Acrobat the movement of the cursor moves the view in the opposite direction causing me to loose my point of reference.
