it was confuisng at the beginning but once i got used to it, it was like it wasnt even there. doesnt really matter to me. i use it sometimes and dont other times (i just find myself moving the cursor to the center and zooming in)

tab-zoom is very nice.
The fact we can zoom out much further is good as well.

The zoom to pointer is quite hard getting used too. (even next to the fact 3dmax has the same, and I used that program a lot (not anymore)).
I don't see the big advantage of it. It's kinda anoying me. But others like it.
I vote for the option: make it optional.

Seeing as we have zoom on mouse like most CAD packages, it would be nice to make the middle mouse button (not scroll) have a "pan" function. Currently it almost works like a pan function, but the directions are inverted.

Yeah CAD movement is fine.. i don't know if inverting controls again is a smart thing to do.. (had to play 2 days to get used the the left<->right mouse butt switch, don't getting my total build-cue deleted with one click *GRUMBL*)

But yes, i know that this is a little different. Maybe a good idea.

Gonna test the TABzoom thing now.

I really like the Zoom function but I would like an option that controls if the zoom in will zoom in on the mouse pos, or if it would return to the previous state (which I would prefer) :-)
