Zooming speed with "Ctrl+Mouse Scroll" on Firefox differs from Google's Chrome.
February 22, 2018 at 8:47pmHi there.
Using the Firefox 58.0.2 I noticed that zooming speed with "Ctrl+Mouse Scroll" is significantly slower than in Google Chrome, which makes it almost unusable.
For reference, % difference per scroll steps:
Google Chrome - 100% - 130% - 170% - 222% - 289%
Firefox - 100% - 102% - 103% - 105% - 106% - 108%
Maybe it's platform or hardware specific, I'm not sure.
Here's my info:
OS: 4.15.3-2-ARCH
Mouse: Logitech, Inc. M90/M100 Optical Mouse
Cheers.

Hey thanks for reporting this. I'll send this over to the team and log it as a bug. :)
Meantime I found a workaround for everybody interested.
To accelerate zooming speed:
1. open about:config
2. search for field mousewheel.with_control.delta_multiplier_y
3. increase the value to speed it up
I've changed the value from 100 to 500, works for me.

Looks like it is happening in a) Firefox b) Linux. I have a friend which runs Figma in Firefox on Windows and everything's fine there.
