Hello,

I have got a zoom scroll problem in google chrome.

By holding the controll button and turning my mouse-wheel one 'click' it zooms in or out to much (no 10% steps), but steps of 100% or 70%.. it differences every time..

I'm using:

Windows 8

Google Chrome Version 24.0.1312.5 beta-m

Logitech MX1000 laser mouse (latest driver setpoint driver)

In Firefox I don't have this problem..

Does anyone know how to fix this?

It works similar on mine.

One click takes it to 90%, then 75%, 67%, 50%, 33% and finally 25%.

I believe that's how it works, I'm not sure it has ever gone in 10% increments.

no I was not clear. It will take 1 step of 100%, even up till 400 %. So 1 ctrl- wheel 'click' up takes me to 300% or sometimes even 500%. Its also not the case that my wheel is broken. Because I have this buttons above and below the wheel (see picture), and those have the same problem.

Ok, this is 3 yrs too late for the originator, but I had this issue in 2015, so it's still relevant. It's not exactly the same problem, but it does seem related.

Google Chrome 45.0.2454.85 m
Logitech SetPoint Control Center 6.65.62 (with UberOptions xml overlay).
Logitech Anywhere MX Mouse

One click of the mouse wheel with Ctrl depressed ("zoom" mode) takes me to 500%. Zooming in Google Maps with the click wheel jumps too many steps. Smooth scrolling in Google Maps is too fast, but still somewhat controllable.
I found that my "scrolling size" in SetPoint was set to "2 Lines". Changing it to "1 line" solved my issue.

Cheers,
Mike

    • Closed-loop cooling and a custom 800G network protocol let the $7.3B campus run as one AI training machine. Microsoft confirmed June 23, 2026, that its Fairwater campus in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, is fully operational — and the engineering behind it makes the facility something fundamentally different from every data center that came before it. Where conventional cloud infrastructure racks up general-purpose servers and parcels out workloads to each one independently, Fairwater links hundreds of thousands of NVIDIA GB200 Blackwell GPUs into a single, coherent cluster using a two-story building design, 800-gigabit-per-second Ethernet fabric, and a proprietary networking protocol co-developed with OpenAI and NVIDIA. The result, according to Microsoft, is the closest thing to a purpose-built AI supercomputer that any company has ever placed in commercial operation. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319205/20260627/microsoft-opens-fairwater-wisconsin-ai-campus-runs-one-supercomputer-via-800g-ethernet.htm
