      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.

      Best

        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”
