+1 from me too. Zoom in is also sth. I wanna have, but:

Ctrl + MouseWheel -> Zoom size in Firefox
Alt + MouseWheel -> slowdown Scrollspeed
Shift + MouseWheel -> Forward/Backward Navigation

maybe Super + MouseWheel is the only unused ... mhh

We now ship compiz enhanced zoom enabled, but with no keyboard or mouse bindings. I think this is possibly the single best feature that the Ubuntu desktop has over other operating systems so I would like to make it easier to use for more people.

Right now I use super+button4 to zoom in and super+button5 to zoom out. So I hold super and roll the mousewheel to magnify the screen at any time. I also disable the overlay hint thing because it gets in the way, but if someone is going to fix that so if you hold super and do something else it doesn't get in the way that would be great too.

I would like to get the super+button4/5 bindings in by default (this is just a simple change to /usr/share/compiz/ezoom.xml to add a couple of lines like: <default>&lt;Super&gt;Button4</default>)

what do you think?

Alan.

+1 from me too . I use alt+ mouse wheel (I find it a bit more logical too , but it's largely a preference) .

Didn't know alt+wheel had a function :) Yeah ,so Super+wheel would be nice .
