Glitch with 'Use scroll wheel zoom' preference
I found a weird behavior and I’m curious if it’s intentional or a glitch. For context, I have the preference ‘Use scroll wheel zoom’ checked on.
The problem is that I’ve found two scenarios that will alter the scroll behavior so that scrolling pans up and down instead of the preferred in and out:
- If I use my mouse’s side scroll wheel.
- While zooming in, middle mouse click + hold to pan. This only happens if I middle mouse click + hold immediately after doing a zoom in. This one is a little inconsistent and also does not happen when I do the same but while zooming out, which is why I think it’s probably a glitch.
In both of these cases, the up and down scrolling behavior persists indefinitely. I can reset the scroll to the correct behavior of zooming in and out by doing any of these actions:
- Panning with the middle mouse button.
- Refreshing the tab.
- Toggling the preference ‘Use scroll wheel zoom’ off and on again. Note that the preference never gets checked off during the glitch.
This happens in both the browser (I’m using Chrome) and in the desktop app. Here’s my system:
Windows 11 Enterprise 23H2
