Hello.
Same question than in Dec 2014 and many other people.
Is there any way to inverse the direction of Shift + Mouse Wheel ?
I find it very counter intuitive.
Thanks.
Where are we with this, Steinberg? Seems like such an incredibly easy toggle to put into the program that would make so many people very happy.

9 Years, 42 posts in this thread alone (Iām sure thereās others with the same topic) and still no change??
Does anybody at Steinberg ever care or even read this?

No, thereās no way to do this as of Cubase 13. I did a video on how to get this using AutoHotkey but that still has caveats.
Steinberg need to properly implement this sooner rather than laterā¦

Sorry but having to use a work around when steinberg have had this request for nearly a decade is quite pityfull.
Steinbergā¦ please liten to your users and apply a fixā¦

Let me tell my new experience since they released long awaited super driver that allows to run two programs simultaneously sharing the same audio device. I run Dorico and Cubase when scoring, WaveLab and Cubase when mastering. In both combinations Dorico and WaveLab behave correctly when scrolling the mouse with Shift key pressed, but Cubase - in the opposite direction. IT IS VERY INCONVENIENT.
Why Cubase programmers cannot swap functions that ar called on mouse roll actions?

Rather than using 3rd party software, itās still not possible to setup this inside Cubase 13 latest versionļ¼

No!
The only way to do this more convenient is to turn mouse for 180 degrees, but then youāll have buttons swapped

I love how Cubase lets you customize your shortkeys, and thanks to that i could create a workflow that suits me perfectly.
About the scrolling, to me:
- ctrl + wheel up to zoom in horizontally (and down to zoom out) is perfect
- ctrl + shift + wheel up to zoom in vertically (and down to zoom out) is perfect
- wheel up to go up vertically (ie towards the beginning of the document) makes sense
However i would also expect that using that same logic:
- shift + wheel up should go left (ie towards the beginning of the document) instead of right which seems to be the default in cubase
So that little thing is very annoying since we need to move in the project all the time.
Just like _kvk said, when i scroll down in a web page, i expect it to go down.
That being said, on apple computers, they let you choose whether scrolling down should go up or down, so i guess thatās the wisest approach here: just let users choose, make it a preference.
Personally i use scrolling down to go to the end of something in almost any software, and this being reversed in Cubase bugs me.
Since i used autohotkeys to adjust other shortcuts problems, here is my 2 cent workaround to have it fixed with autohotkeys (just replace cubase14 by the version that youāre using to make this work):
-----cubase-scroll-fix.ahk (not part of the script)
#SingleInstance force
#IfWinActive ahk_exe Cubase14.exe
+WheelUp::
Send, +{WheelDown}
Return
+WheelDown::
Send, +{WheelUp}
Return
#IfWinActive
-----end (not part of the script)
Also, would love to see that customizable in the shorcut prefs in native cubase some day.
Guys, there is a vote button up there, do not just +1 in your post and walk away, hit that vote button at the top of the page as well (i believe it has more impact on cubase devs, although thatās just speculation)ā¦

Oh great, now Iām also the victim of the āshift+scroll reversed direction on parametersā on Mac.
Normal scroll = fine
Shift+Scroll = reversed
I donāt remember this being the case in C13 and I didnāt pay attention to it in C14 until today. I really canāt recall this being inverted
