I'm forced to use a separate mouse to operate Studio One, as the default option (that can't be changed) to have the mouse scroll wheel adjust values of any parameter under the pointer is suicidal to my projects when using Apple's Magic Mouse.

It is super sensitive in all directions, and I constantly mess up projects when trying to use it on my iMac.

On a high resolution display with tiny knobs and switches, this really becomes totally unusable unless you're constantly making sure your pointer isn't hovering over a parameter before you scroll or even slightly move your finger on Apple's Magic Mouse.

So I've had to purchase a separate mouse for use with S1, that isn't that sensitive in all directions and actually has a physical scroll wheel, not a glass surface that controls the movement.

AN OPTION TO USE A MODIFIER KEY FOR CHANGING PARAMETER VALUES UNDER THE POINTER USING THE MOUSE WHEEL IS A MUST!

Keep the defaults as they are, but PLEASE, include a setting for adding an optional modifier for the scroll wheel behavior, as it drives me nuts!

Agreed, a better system for this would be great, the console is a minefield if you are attempting to horizontally scroll through it (without grabbing that tiny little bar at bottom I mean)

Yeah! I was about to make this request too! It is so annoying, they should implement this option.

It feels sometimes Studio One devs never ever use the DAW, cuz this mouse-wheel behaviour is really annoying, and the side bars... could they be any smaller?
