Feature Request: Scrolling by middle mouse click

Post by rittergig »

Hi,
the PDF-XChange-Viewer is the best PDF viewer i know - especialy for students.

But there is one feature fellow students and myself are missing: the scrolling function while clicking the middle mouse button.
If I use the Adobe PDF reader and click the middle mouse button a scrolling symbol appears and I can scroll up- or downwards the pages really fast. I think it is a really nice function which I also find in current webbrowser.

I would really appreciate if you could implementade this feature in future versions of PDF-XChange-Viewer.

Thank you very much and thanks for this great program!

Hello rittergig,

Your request has been noted and we will add it to the wish list, but at this moment we are in a process of a thorough review of our software and are mostly working on fine tuning some existing features (and fixing a few bugs of course :) ) so your request will take a few builds to get implemented.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Best Regards,
Stefan

On a similar subject, I would prefer the mouse wheel function to zoom in and out.
Not really a request, but if this would be implemented I would be happy.
I think the existing hand tool scrolling is enough for the scrolling action.
I know you can zoom in and out using the slider in the zoom toolbar, but it is easier if zooming can be done with the mouse wheel. This option is available on Adobe reader. However, I never use Adobe reader now. :D

Press Ctrl and use mouse wheel - you will be surprised.
rittergig is talking about pressing mouse wheel as middle button and get scrolling. May be useful feature for documents with large pages.
