SOLVED

Left/Right Scroll unavailable

Hi all!

 

As many of you already know, the left/right scroll function (either with a mouse wheel tilt or the touchpad) does not work - neither in the canvas nor in the results window - in Alteryx. 

 

Does the new Alteryx release (2019.4) solve this issue? Has anyone figured any workaround out?

 

Thank you!

Hi @JulioMO ,

 

Just tried in the canvas with touchpad using 2019.4 and it doesn't work.

 

As a workaround I use the "Overview" that you can activate using the "View" menu.

The "Overview" goes in the lower-left corner by default and dragging the black-bordered window inside the "Overview" you can go anywhere you want in your workflow. It also scales on you room level.

 

I hope it helps you.

 

Kind regards,

 

Jean-Baptiste

You can hold down the space bar to change your mouse into a multi direction panning tool.

You can also press and hold the mouse wheel.

If you hold in your scroll wheel in, it'll show the multi direction panning, but will also work in your results view.

Great workarounds. As @DavidThorpe says, holding the wheel also works in the results window. The space bar does not. 

 

It is quite a shame that the touchpad/mouse wheel tilt don't work tho.

 

Thanks for the help!
