Map Zoom to Trackpoint-Style Pointer
-
Hello. I was hoping to do what it says in the subject: find a way to make my nub mouse zoom in a way similar to a scroll wheel on a mouse. I've recently started to use Sketchup on my laptop and I hate having to hit Z to switch to the zoom tool, double click with one mouse button on a point to zoom at, and then have to switch between that button and another to zoom and orbit. I'm used to maneuvering around very quickly with only orbit and scroll-wheel zoom. I'd love to have a button I could hold in conjunction with my middle-click button to make the trackpoint "nub" control zoom, so that one hand could use the nub and middle-click, while the other could hold a button to toggle the middle-click action from orbit to zoom.
I assume there isn't a way to do this, but I thought I'd ask here. It's annoying enough that I have to switch to "smooth" scrolling for it to work in Sketchup...I guess I'll start dragging a mouse around. Computer in question is a Lenovo, incidentally.
