Description Explorer09 2018-06-01 03:11:11 UTC 
Description:
This is a usability problem.

Ctrl + mouse wheel has become a UI convention for zooming in or out. However,
in LibreOffice Impress's "Slide Sorter", Ctrl + mouse wheel does nothing.

Although there exists a "slides per row" up-down control in the Slide Sorter
toolbar on the top, I expect it works like zooming, and that Ctrl + mouse wheel
should change "slides per row" without using the control explicitly.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open an ODP file with many slides (about 60 slides or more).
2. Go to "View" -> "Slide Sorter".
3. Move mouse cursor over main slides area, and Ctrl + mouse wheel.

Actual Results:  
 It does nothing, not even scroll the slides screen.

Expected Results:
 It changes slides per row similar to zooming in or out the
slides.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

I think that is a valid enhancement request.
Notes: ctrl+mouse wheel works as zoom in the diapo edit window. I do see why it should be different here.

Set status to NEW.
