No middle-click scrolling in visual studio 2010?

Question

Just as I started to assume this feature was ubiquitous(middle-clicking on a page, then scrolling speed/direction is relative to the distance of the pointer on the y-axis).

I can't believe this hasn't been implemented into the text editor in vs2010, I used it all the time in 2005 and 2008.

Has anyone managed to find a workaround or am I a minority user of this feature?

Answer 1

Looks like this was cut from VS 2010 :(. Here are some links to the Connect issues:

Not the answer you wanted but at least you don't have to waste time figuring this out.

Here's an extension which makes it work (at least partially): http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/3b81aea8-d022-4aa6-9b8c-16ef86cc610d
