Change mouse wheel horizontal scroll amount
Hi,
I'd like to change the amount the horizontal scrollbar is moved when scrolling the file list in a directory.
(The layout is set to "Brief", only showing filenames, switched using Ctrl+F1.)
Currently it seems like it scrolls two "units", the same amount if I click the little arrow in the scrollbar twice.
Is it possible to reduce it to only one?
So one mouse scroll wheel "click" would equal to 1 press on the little arrow.
Thanks.

This should be configurable in the mouse control panel.

Thanks, but I would like to keep the OS-level setting at the currently set "3 lines at a time" (not sure why this translates to 2 scrolled units / columns).
It works great in any other view (pretty much for any vertical scrolling), but it feels off during horizontal scrolling in TCMD in this view.

"3 lines at a time" is the value for vertical scrolling. There should be a separate option for horizontal scrolling. Unfortunately my mouse doesn't have a horizontal wheel, it only supports tilting the vertical scroll wheel horizontally. When I do this in brief view, it only scrolls sideways by one column at a time.

Re: Change mouse wheel horizontal scroll amount
Sorry, I should have been more clear about this:
My mouse doesn't have any horizontal scrolling option either (not even tilting).
When I'm in brief mode, there is only one scrollbar in the window, a horizontal one.
When I scroll my mouse wheel in this window (one click, vertically), then it jumps the 2 columns (in 3 lines at a time mode).

Ah, I see, I will check why it scrolls by more than one column at a time.

Re: Change mouse wheel horizontal scroll amount
I've just checked the 11.55RC1 changelog and the fix is already in there.
I've just tried the latest release candidate (11.55RC2) now and I can confirm it no longer scrolls two columns, the issue is fixed, thank you.
