Help with Zoom - mouse wheel not zooming any more

    Hi:

    I'm using AutoCAD 2005. I normally can zoom in on an object by using the
    scroll wheel on my mouse, but now I've done something and when I use the
    scroll wheel, the drawing scrolls up and down. The weird thing is that when
    I have several drawings open, some zoom with the scroll wheel and some move
    up and down so it must be a 'per drawing' setting but I can't find it. Can
    anyone help?

    Thanks.

    unless you've configured your intellimouse for AutoCAD 2004 and forgot
    to do the same for 2005. The scrolling behavior is usually
    attributatable to the middle button assignment in mouse properties
    (access through control panel). You'll want to set the middle button
    assignment to 'middle button' and check the 'use office 97 compatible
    scrolling' Also set the number of scrolling lines to 0...oh
    yea......turn off the scroll bars if you havce them on.

    Hi Parish:

    Thanks for your note. I don't see how it could be a mouse setting since the
    zoom/scroll behaviour is different for drawings that I have open at the same
    time. The other thing is that this behaviour started while I was working on
    a drawing - I hadn't made any changes to the mouse configuration. In any
    case, I'm not using an intelli mouse, I'm using a Logitech mouse and there's
    no individual program settings. Thanks for the advice anyway.
