For the love of all that is holy stop the ctrl+MouseWheel text scaling - SOLVED

(1/3) > >>

mouser:
I am CONSTANTLY, and I mean many times per day, inadvertently changing the scaling of text in all manner of applications (especially web browser but also text editors), by scrolling the mouse wheel while the control key is held down.
Is there a way to turn off this evil behavior?

tomos:
What is it you want / expect to happen (or is it that you want to scroll, and inadvertently have the Ctrl key pressed from last use of same ?)

If there is desired behaviour (as opposed to no behaviour :p) could this be implemented via AHK? [that directed at the AHK specialists...]

mouser:
The problem is that I have a new logitech mouse, which has momentum on the scroll wheel, so essentially the scroll wheel sometimes keep moving in the direction i scroll it for a couple of seconds.  So sometimes I will spin the scroll wheel and while it's still spinning I will go to do something that requires me to press the control key, and then all of a sudden I've changed the text font size from 10 to 1 or from 10 to 1000..

Curt:
How do I stop my mouse from resizing?

Press Start button on the keyboard, type Mouse & Touchpad settings and select the top most search result. From the window click on Additional mouse option. Click on the Device Settings tab and click on Settings button. From the left side panel, click Pinch Zoom option and uncheck the box Enable Pinch Zoom.23. sep. 2016
