UX: Enable Mouse Wheel Scrolling for ComboBox (Dropdown) Selections

Your idea

Allow users to cycle through options in a ComboBox (dropdown menu) by using the mouse scroll wheel while hovering over the element. Instead of clicking to open a list and then clicking again to select an item, a user could simply hover and scroll to "flip" through the available choices.

Problem to be solved

Currently, selecting options from dropdown menus (e.g. Font, Zoom) requires a multi-click process. This breaks the creative flow when a user wants to quickly "audition" different styles or settings. Enabling scroll-to-select makes the interface feel more responsive and reduces repetitive clicking.

Prior art

Additional context

• Safety: To prevent accidental changes while scrolling through the Inspector or Properties panel, the interaction should only trigger when the mouse cursor is directly centered over the ComboBox and there is no active page-scrolling (see #Prior Art).
• Default behaviour: I think this feature should be optional and maybe even off my default, as this may create unexpected behavior for some users.
• Addition?: I am uncertain if this should be applied also to number selectors (e.g. font-size), since those already have the arrow buttons for very granular changes.

Example for an object that would be affected by this change:

Checklist

• This request follows the guidelines for reporting issues
• I have verified that this feature request has not been logged before, by searching the issue tracker for similar requests

No source file or test is named. Start by locating the ComboBox implementation and existing mouse-wheel handling for the Font and Zoom controls, then determine how the Inspector or Properties panel distinguishes control interaction from page scrolling. Done means an agreed optional behavior works for dropdown selections without unintended scrolling; the scope for number selectors also needs resolution.
