    A feature suggestion:

    Scrolling horizontal/vertical on the schematic is possible by mouse/keyboard commands. I found no option to pan directly, though

    As right-click is already given to the context menu, middle mouse button hold + mouse movement could be a nice solution. I recall this assignment also from other software.

    Agree:

    A single hand horz-vert scroll/zoom control would be really nice!

     

    Altium Designer e.g. has:

    Zoom: Middle-Mouse-Button-Hold

    Horz-Vert Scroll:  Right-Mouse-Button-Hold

     

    The QucsStudio Right-Mouse-Button context menu is normally not used by me. To change a component I  Double click with the Left-Mouse-Button on a component or use the tool bar at the top of the QucsStudio window.

    Indeed, the plan for future versions is

    * zoom with mouse wheel
    * move with right mouse button pressed
    * context menu with right mouse button click

    As far as I know this is what most programs do.

    I researched a bit:

    CST Schematic view:
    zoom with mouse wheel (turn wheel ‘away’ from user = zoom out)
    move with mouse wheel /middle button press
    context menu with right button click

    CorelDraw2019:
    zoom with mouse wheel (turn wheel ‘away’ from user = zoom in)
    move with mouse wheel /middle button press
    context menu with right button click

    Excel365:
    zoom with CTRL + mouse wheel (turn wheel ‘away’ from user = zoom in)
    move with mouse wheel /middle button press
    context menu with right button click

    Firefox
    zoom with CTRL + mouse wheel (turn wheel ‘away’ from user = zoom in)
    context menu with right button click

    Rhino-ceros CAD v5
    zoom with mouse wheel (turn wheel ‘away’ from user = zoom in)
    move with right mouse button press
    context menu with mouse wheel /middle button press

    KiCad 6
    zoom with mouse wheel (turn wheel ‘away’ from user = zoom in)
    move with right mouse button press
    context menu with right button click

    I don’t see any argument against your plan.
    Additionally I suggest making sure to set “turn wheel away from user = zoom in”
