reversing the mouse wheel direction for zoom ?

Is there an option to reverse the zoom direction when using the mouse wheel ? Currently it is counterintuitive and in reverse than usual in most other programs (at least on Windows). I zoom in the wrong direction mostly at each wheel rotation, only to realize milliseconds later the fault and rotate then back almost double than needed.

Hi Secarica,

See if you can turn on/off the zoom to mouse setting and if that helps. It doesn't change the zoom direction(prefrences->editor settings) by the looks of it but might help a little. We'll have to add setting to reverse the zoom direction.

Well, I will wait for that option to materialize :) It's not critical, don't get me wrong.

'Zoom to mouse', while being an useful feature, has nothing to do with the mouse wheel direction and appears to be an option for 3D view only (main view), the editor is working that way already (or so it seems to me).
