    Unhappy Mouse command problem

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Usually when I double click on my mouse scroll button it zoom extents. Now it doesn't do it. (I switched computers completely.) I've tried using the 'mbuttonpan' command and that doesn't work. Any other suggestions? I'm using AutoCAD Civil 3D Land Desktop Companion, 2009. I believe that this has always been a problem on this computer. Even when the person before me was using 2007.

    It's driving me crazy!!!

    Yeah it was already set at 1, so I set it to 0 & tried. Same thing. I changed it back to 1 again and the same thing. When I double click on the scroll button it just zooms out once. And on my old computer when I held down the scroll button it would pan. On this computer I'm on now, it still just zooms out once. (Or a little bit.)

    Have you checked the basic mouse settings in windows and verified that the driver is correct?
    Are you prepared? Send PM if you want to know more.

    The problem is stupidity. I am not saying there should be capital punishment for stupidity, buy, why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

    I would thing there is a setting somewhere that will turn this on or off. However, I don't know where it is but would like to find out.

    My problem is sort of the same only opposite. I would like it to stop the zooms extents from a double click.

    Can I turn this off?

    Someone may think that I know what I'm doing. If so, I sure fooled them!

    I dont have an answer...but my question is "why in the world would you want to turn that off?"

    I prefure to use double click to edit text and change properties as I do more often than I zoom e. I don't know if I can do both by altering the time but it seems more trouble than it's worth

    do you have a 3rd button (the scroller)? my left button is used for editing but the 3rd (middle/scroller) is double clicked and does a ZE....
