Description
-
Windows build number: 10.0.18362.53
-
I am using the new Ctrl+Mouse wheel to resize the console
-
What's wrong / what should be happening instead: I am using a Surface Precision mouse, which has the option to disable detent scrolling.
When detent scrolling is on, the console resizes as expected. With Detent scrolling off, even if I don't scroll rapidly the window is either not responsive to resizing, or responds in rare instances with a very significant resize, making the window unusable.
In MOST cases, it is simply not responsive, which only occurs infrequntly or with rapid scrolling with detent on.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the Ctrl+mouse-wheel resize behavior on Windows 10 with a Surface Precision Mouse, testing detent scrolling on and off. Done means resizing responds consistently without becoming unresponsive or applying an unexpectedly large resize.
