Some people have complained about the zoomable scrollbar on the bottom of the timeline, saying that they are having a hard time panning comfortably without accidentally scrolling. Personally I don't find it too difficult to drag roughly horizontally or vertically with a pen or mouse, but we need to consider different levels of comfort, dexterity and accessibility. https://krita-artists.org/t/animation-zoom-timeline/33074/9 Here are some potential solutions or workarounds: 1. Add an option (in-menu or config file) to disable zoomable scrollbar behavior. 2. Adjust the detection of horizontal vs vertical so as to prefer one "dominant axis" over the other. By broadening the detection angles of the dominant axis (thus narrowing the angle of the minor axis) it would [a] allow us to favor panning over zooming, decreasing the odds of accidentally zooming, and [b] it would move the "fault line" away from the 45-degree angles that we are naturally prone to drawing due to the arc of the forearm. 3. Lock into horizontal or vertical mode per drag. If you start dragging horizontally, you will remain in horizontal mode until the drag event is over. Same thing with vertical mode. This way you only need to be precise at the very start of the drag (although, the precision at the start becomes *more* important). 4. Revert this design and everything else I've ever done because it's all terrible and go chase my dreams and never look back. :P
