Mouse wheel doesn't zoom

Sharont

Hi,

I recently encountered a probelm where scrolling with the mouse wheel does not zoom in or out both in "Allegro Free Physical Viewer" and PCB editor (16.3).

When I scroll the mouse wheel I get a message in the bottom command window like - "buttonfuctor: variable not defined"

 

The thing is that it worked fine until yesterday.

 

Anyone has an idea?

 

Thanks,

Sharon.

    The "buttonfactor" is set in the PCB Editor environment, sonds like "something" has happened to the setting.

    In PCB Editor, use Tools>Utilities>Env Variables to list the environment variables, this should list "something like" "set buttonfactor = 1" for the zoom factor, this value will be set by the installation "env" file at share\pcb\text\env, look for the Mouse Wheel support at the end of the file.

    Maybe something happened to the file, I don't think that a SITE environment will prevent this file from being read.
