In GoldWave the mouse wheel supports zooming, scrolling and selection, or playback speed adjustments. Click the middle mouse button or the wheel button to display a menu to configure the behaviour of the mouse wheel. The menu items are explained below. The mouse wheel works only when the Main window is active and only on the currently active Sound window. Click-and-drag the middle mouse button to scroll the waveform left or right.
Zooms in and out of the waveform when the wheel is rotated up or down. The location of the mouse pointer is used as the focal point. Position the mouse over the area of interest when using the wheel. See View Menu Commands for information about viewing parts of the waveform in more detail.
When zoomed in, rotating the wheel up or down scrolls the waveform left or right. Holding the shift key moves the start marker. Holding both the shift and control keys moves the finish marker. Holding just the control key scrolls vertically, when zoomed in vertically. See Editing Overview for more information about selecting part of a file.
Increases or decreases the playback speed by changing the Speed fader on the Control window.
Increases or decreases the playback volume by changing the Volume fader on the Control window.
