Question

How to make scroll wheel zoom work in Windows 10 with Creo Parametric

I had a very difficult time finding a solution for this. I opened a call and PTC said Windows 10 wasn't a supported configuration. Fortunately a curious co-worker discovered the fix. Not having zoom with the scroll wheel was a show stopper for me. Here's how to make it work as before:

1. Select the Start button

 

2. Type "mouse & t" in the search area and press Enter

 

3. In the Mouse & touchpad settings dialog select the toggle for Scroll inactive windows when I hover over them until it displays Off.

 

4. Launch Creo Parametric and marvel at mouse wheel zooming

    rmyers!  Thank you so much for taking the time to write this.  I just updated to Windows 10 finally and my mouse stopped scrolling in Creo!  This very old post saved my bacon.  Thank you for the pictures and great description.

    I have found solutions for Windows 10 in this post, but how do I get Windows 7 with Creo4.0 to work with my mouse? I have no functionality for panning, zooming or rotating.
