Hi guys,

I wasn't quite sure where to put this but because it basically bugs me the most while modeling I figured I would ask here. Does any one know of a way to adjust the amount maya zooms when you spin the mouse wheel? Sometimes the amount works alright and other times It drives me crazy because I can't get close enough without going through my model.

Thanks for any assistance,

-Ethan

I'd recommend not using the wheel for this reason. The RMB is much more precise. You will get used to the change.

See https://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/w...mouse-settings under "To change how the mouse wheel works"

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

ah alright so there is no way to just adjust it in maya it's all just based on the windows setting. I appreciate the help. I will have to try and change the mouse wheel habit I never think to use the other method for some reason. I came from another app I'd used for years and the mouse wheel got imprinted.

Thanks gents,

-Ethan
