    I've just installed Acad-R14, before that I used Acad Lite97.

    In my Lite, the function of dynamic zoom was linked to the scroll wheel of the
    mouse. This is not so in R14, and I can't find where to set this option.

    Anyone?

    Ps. Happy newyear.

    Found an older thread regarding same issue.
    And, yes, I'm using wireless.

    The scroll function is driven by the mouse driver. You have to
    configure it in your mouse configuration, not in AutoCAD.
    Some wireless mice do not have all the configuration options of the
    wired mice, so depending on the brand of mouse you may not get the
    scroll function.

    I'm sure r14 doesnt support this function anyway?? could be wrong but I
    remember needing a small program to sort this out for me, and I still
    remember it not working as well as I wanted it too eg: like the newer acads

    sorry, I can't recall the name of the program

    Too bad.
    It's funny, the function works i LT97 but not in that newer version (ok, I know
    R14 not is the newest) but one would expect, that such a function was
    transfered.

    Anyhow, I'll just have to live without. Or downgrade to LT97 again ;o)

    But you have pan and zoom (dynamic and window) on the toolbar, just one
    click away. Is wheel scrolling that much of an advantage?

    But you have pan and zoom (dynamic and window) on the toolbar, just one
    To me it is, and I miss this feature.
    Offcourse one can always argue, that it's not important. But I'm used to this
    feature, and therefore I miss it :eek:)

  13. Yes, because you can zoom to the mouse pointer and not to the center of the
    viewport.

    Tack so myket! (or is that Swedish?)

    My son-in-law's site, in fact. We have a group of people trying to keep
    the remains of the airfield and stop it being lost, so we have collected
    a lot of information about it. The website has had many responses from
    people who have information or stories, from as far as Canada, for
    example..

    But this is off topic...
