Default Scrub / jog with the scroll wheel - reverse direction?

Hi all.

I'm trying to set up Reaper so that I can scrub/jog with the scroll wheel on my mouse (with a modifier). My problem is that Reaper interprets my scroll wheel direction in a way that's counterintuitive to me - it interprets scrolling down as wanting to scrub *back* in the project, and scrolling up as wanting to scrub *forward*. To me, the reverse is more intuitive - scrolling down should move further through the content towards the end, like it does on a web page or document, so it should scrub *forward* - and vice versa for scrolling up.

I know that the "View: scroll horizontally" action has two versions - normal and reversed - so for view scrolling I can simply tie the reverse option to my mousewheel and it then behaves intuitively for me.

However, there is no "reverse" action for scrubbing, so I am stuck with the counterintuitive (to me) scroll wheel interpretation.

Is there another way I could achieve this? (I know I can reverse the direction of the scroll wheel entirely in Prefs > General > Keyboard / Multitouch, but then the *vertical* scroll becomes counterintuitive!)

Thanks,
Flix
