More mouse scroll combinations with keys

Post by Thy Grand Voidinesss »

[In the wake of this solution / workaround viewtopic.php?p=56073#p56073]

Currently this handy feature viewtopic.php?t=9994#ctrl_shift_mouse_wheel_action allows users for using of e.g. such combo for mouse wheel

Code: Select all

ctrl_mouse_wheel_action=2
ctrl_shift_mouse_wheel_action=11
shift_mouse_wheel_action=10
alt_mouse_wheel_action=4
But I myself would like to be able to use such setup
ctrl_mouse_wheel_action=2 === Text zoom
ctrl_shift_mouse_wheel_action=9 === Focus Previous/Next Item Extend
shift_mouse_wheel_action=8 === Previous/Next Item Extend
alt_mouse_wheel_action=4 === Navigation history
alt_shift_mouse_wheel_action=10 === Previous/Next filter
alt_ctrl_mouse_wheel_action=11 === Previous/Next bookmark

[The personal reasoning behind is that CTRL+WHEEL should still act as zoom as it commonly does in other programs - thus CTRL also in Everything should be primarily associated with zooming. But as there is also a common feature of selecting items with CTRL+MOUSELEFT thus CTRL+SHIFT should act somewhat similar. And if SHIFT is set to perform its variant of selection equal to this in various file managers - thus only ALT remains for creating of more combinations]

[All in all]

What I propose is to expand current possibilities of

Code: Select all

ctrl_mouse_wheel_action
ctrl_shift_mouse_wheel_action
shift_mouse_wheel_action
alt_mouse_wheel_action
mouse_wheel_action
mouse_hwheel_action
by at least

Code: Select all

alt_ctrl_mouse_wheel_action
alt_shift_mouse_wheel_action
if not also by

Code: Select all

ctrl_shift_alt_mouse_wheel_action
so that users would gain more flexibility in their choices and expand the overall number of actions they can perform with scroll whell

I will consider support for:
alt_ctrl_mouse_wheel_action
alt_shift_mouse_wheel_action
ctrl_shift_alt_mouse_wheel_action

Thank you for your suggestions.
