Hello guys, how ı can change the mouse scroll wheel keyboard shortcut? Now ı use option and mouse scroll, but ı would change to command. Command and mouse scroll how ı can make it? Thanks.
Inside Illustrator you cannot access these keys. But maybe someone can propose a system extension. We would need to know your system and what you want to do with that shortcut
ı need that setting because ı use many programs, and they use scroll and command. For example, Figma. ı use Figma a lot and when ı come to use adobe illustrator I get confused and ı cannot use illustrator fast. That's why ı need this setting
I use MacBook. I need to change the illustrator shortcut when ı use screen zoom. You can use this tool with (alt) and scroll mouse when you use windows. Now ı use this tool with option and scroll middle mouse button (mac), but ı need to change for command: command + mouse scroll wheel. Sorry, my English is not good 🙂
I agree its super confusing! I was using PC before and now Mac, that changes the finger I need for the key plus I also use figma a lot. Command instead of option would solve all that.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I completely understand how using different programs with varying shortcuts can cause confusion, especially when transitioning between platforms.
As Monika said, currently, it’s not possible to change the scroll wheel shortcut in Illustrator to Command + mouse scroll directly through Illustrator’s settings, as the system restricts this behavior. However, you may be able to explore third-party applications, plugins, or extensions that allow you to customize your system shortcuts and achieve the desired setup.
