Description

The "ALT + mouse wheel" zoom feature was introduced in recent versions of xfwm-4.11. It is activated by enabling compositing in the window manager tweaks settings menu. It is not obvious that this gets enabled simply by enabling compositing and there should be an option where this feature can be disabled, since it also breaks applications where that input combination is used.
