Zoom web pages with the left or right mouse button and the scroll wheel.

What is Scroll Zoom?
The Chrome extension 'Scroll Zoom' allows users to manipulate the zoom level of web pages easily, using either the left or right mouse button along with the scroll wheel. Its unique set of features, which also includes customizable zoom levels, enhances user experience and navigation efficiency. Development is partially crowd-funded, and continued user support ensures its regular upgrades. Unfortunately, due to browser restrictions, the extension does not function on the Chrome Web Store page or local browser and extension pages.

自分の使ってるマウスジェスチャ(ストロッカーズプラス )と干渉して使えないのだが、この機能はほんと助かる フリーソフトのかざぐるマウスにもこの機能があってFirefoxではお世話になってます

Plugin would be perfect if it were possible to assign a stepwise increase or reduction instead of the zoom levels.
