yes, it works in L7, although for me, I had to go back to Ilia's first script to make it work.

Also, if you don't like it, just don't run it - it has to run alongside Live to work.

This works great! thanks.

I am wondering though, what is the difference between your program and the autohotkey program? Or maybe i can better ask what exactly is your program?

I'm just trying to understand what is going on. ;) It seems your program loads the Mousewheel_live.ahk script and uses that to overrule the mousewheel.

Care to enlighten me?

right, this was a simple autohotkey script. It has now been superceded by a much larger system of keyboard and mouse shortcuts (Vitamin L). See this thread:

I wonder if there's a way to do this on osx? Maybe with applescript or something similar?

I am still using Live 6 for DJing (as I have it all set up the way I like it)...
I've always been annoyed that the scroll wheel does not zoom, so when I found this thread I thought great!!

However the link on the first page gets a 404...
So has anyone got a fresh link to this script??

Many thanks

I don't own max4live yet but is there anyone here that can say weather or not this kind of action would be possible to create using it? Scroll wheel zooming, that is.

Anyone managed scroll wheel or magic mouse/trackpad two finger zooming?

Can anyone post the mouse wheel zoom AutoHotkey script? (I'm aware of the VitaminL solution, but I'm just looking for this specific script.)

I would also like just the mouse wheel script. I don't want the usual shortcuts taken over (or give Vitamin L some options please)
Thank you.

real late to the game here but….when I press F9 Ableton does not begin recording. I'm certain this is my fault but cannot correct it myself. SOS. Thanks you!
