Is it possible to configure control + scroll-wheel to increase/decrease zoom in VS Code?

Similar to the default in the Visual Studio editors or Sublime, I would like to use control + scroll-wheel to change the font size / zoom level, rather than control-plus/minus. I did not see any option in the User or Workspace preferences.

Edit from Derek Morin: If you want this to be the default behaviour, please upvote: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/97137


You can edit settings.json and add this line:

  "editor.mouseWheelZoom": true

Or go to settings CTRL + , or File > Preferences > Settings and search for:

mouseWheelZoom

in newer versions :

File -> preferences -> settings -> search for "mouse wheel zoom"
