    Unhappy Scroll wheel Zoom backwards in Inventor!

    Having some problems with the "scrolling" feature in Inventor 10 series! Its backwards! I'm used to scrolling in one direction from Autocad! Please tell me there is a way to reverse the "scrolling function" either in the software or my mouse! I work with Autocad also! This is driving me crazy! TIA!

    Paul,

    You might want to look into a VBA app called I-Tweak. I believe this will do what you want. I haven't used it myself, but I've heard good things about it.

    Best regards,

    Finally! I didn't think I'd ever get a reply to this one! Thanks a lot for the reply Jonathan! I really get confused every time I have to switch from Acad to Inventor & start scrolling opposite!
    Have a good one!

    Smile Re: Scroll wheel Zoom backwards in Inventor!

    I have the same problem and I feel Inventor is correct and AutoCad is backwards. Did the
    I-Tweak work for you? The fix that was suggested to me was to turn the mouse around 180 degrees from one application to another.

    I cannot seem to find I-Tweak online and I would really like to change Inventor rather than Revit and AutoCAD which I am already used to..I am using inventor 2012.

    Thanks

    Old thread you found
    You can change the zoom direction under Inventor Application Options, under the Display Tab. Look for Zoom behavior and change Reverse direction.

    thanks Rob, and for those looking for the options button it's at the bottom of the drop-down when you click on the big "I" in the upper left
