# Disk Activity Monitor v1.4.15

## What's changed

### Charts
- **Chart zoom now requires the Ctrl modifier.** Mouse-wheel scrolling over the live disk activity chart and the total-written trend chart no longer changes the time window on its own — hold **Ctrl** while scrolling to zoom. Plain wheel scrolling is ignored by the zoom handler, so the dashboard scrolls normally. (`0bc09c2`)
- **Restyled chart hover tooltip.** The tray dashboard's chart hover tooltip was reworked into a dark, high-contrast card: a near-black rounded surface with a subtle border, drop shadow, Segoe UI semibold text with a muted caption line and a bright value line, and wrapping capped at 380px. (`5761d61`)

### Repository
- Added `_SCRATCHPAD` to `.gitignore`. (`cdb41a7`)

### Tests
- New `ChartControlsTests` coverage for the tooltip content builder, plus expanded `MainWindowCoverageTests` for the chart wheel/zoom gesture behavior.
