Linux (arch)
2.83a

**"Middle Mouse Action" option to choose Orbit or Pan is no longer available, though is currently in 2.82. **

Perhaps related:

The "Alt Middle Mouse Drag Action" is also missing (though don't rely on it, as it doesn't behave as one would expect).
The "Extra Shading Pie Menus" option is now shifted over to where these options used to reside.

Q: Is this going to be a permanent edition? It is helpful when jumping to/from painting applications If it's still being debated, I'll stop my muscle-memory reprogramming.

Let me/us know.

It's back!!

Sorry for the panic, but I don't need to explain how challenging it's been to retrain my muscle memory to use this fundamental addition... and didn't want to go back!

And as a bonus, the Relative option for “Alt Middle Mouse Drag Action” now works as as we would expect. EXCELLENT!
Our animals can now swim up toward the top of the screen, when viewing from top. It was so awkward before.
