[Feature Request] Remove Mouse Scroll Wheel Adjustments to the Program Monitor

As a social media video editor, I sometimes edit many short videos per day.


Having the scroll wheel adjust the size and location of the program monitor has become an enormous hassle.

 

Problem:

Whether using a Magic Mouse or a regular mouse with a scroll wheel, I sometimes accidentally scroll when moving the cursor across the program monitor, even to get to another section in Premiere Pro.

 

I accidentally subtly scaled the video preview in the program monitor without noticing. This caused me to re-render the video because elements were not placed in the correct locations.

 

It's just as frustrating when I do notice when I do it. I'm constantly resetting the zoom level dropdown to "Fit."

 

Please revert this change. It's become a massive headache.

I second @Ann Bens motion to make it an option. Magnification > Fit can be mapped to a keyboard shortcut to quickly put you back where you need to be.

An option to turn it on or off would be a better idea imo as I do love this new feature.
