Alt Scroll Wheel in 3D viewport only zooms out in Substance 3D Designer. Previosly in Subsntace Designer you could hold alt to pan and zoom in and out. I understand you dont have to hold alt to zoom or pan, but its force of habit coming from Autodesk Maya where holding alt is nesssary to rotate.

i know its probably too late but you probably were on the (L) lightbulb icon. if you switch to the (C) camera icon, all functionality comes back. hope this helps anyone in the future.

Hello,

 

The zooming behaviour is the following across all viewports:

  • Hold Alt+RMB and drag up: Zoom out/Push away
  • Hold Alt+RMB and drag down: Zoom in/Pull closer
  • Mouse wheel up: Zoom in
  • Mouse wheel down: Zoom out

The Invert zoom in views option in the General section of the Preferences is still global, which means all these mapping will be inverted in all viewports.

 

I hope this is helpful!

 

Best regards.
