Whiteboards zoom and pan with mouse wheel
planned

Mouse wheel up/down = zoom & mouse wheel click = pan
This is the most common means of navigation for intuitive graphical editors.

This is a no brainer. Definitely a must

I like everyone I work with here work in the visualisation industry. With almost all of our apps method of zooming in and out is nativly using the mouse wheel, aside from a few, which can easily be changed.
Also If I'm panning the whiteboard by pressing the mouse wheel, this should continue to pan no mater where my mouse is hovering over. I don't want to see object moving when I'm trying to pan, or needing to find an empty space so I can pan. The object isn't even selected so why should it be moved?

Aaron Munro: I second this as a creative

Oh yeah definitely up for this one. It keeps kicking me out of the flow having to press CTRL when zooming all the time. Kind of insutrial standard now that zooming is simply scrolling mouse wheel up and down without the need of pressing other buttons. Pls Clickup guys, make this happen!! :)

I'm not a dev but I found that holding the Ctrl button on Windows while scrolling allows you to zoom in and out. But yeah, I still agree that scrolling alone should be assigned to zoom instead.

Completely agree on this. If you look at other leading whiteboards like Miro that's how it's done. It's so much more user friendly. I don't see why anyone would want to scroll in one direction on a whiteboard. The UX in general for the Clickup whiteboard is lagging behind others quite a lot.

Defaulting to one-dimensional vertical scrolling makes sense for one-dimensional content. Whiteboards are designed to contain two-dimensional content. At the least there should be an option to change the functionality for users that seek to work efficiently by reducing the amount of input required to perform an action.
Autodesk Revit is a great example of intuitive UX design that implements decades of refinements for 2D and 3D content viewing and editing.

I think zooming should be Ctrl+scroll. I don't find it intuitive to use the scroll wheel on its own for zooming.
