Hello developer and documentation team,

Since the keyboard shortcuts are now standardized in the user manual [1], the 
writing of
the mouse interactions should also be standardized.

For example, the following spellings can be found in the manual:

Ctrl+click, Ctrl+clicking,
right click, right-click and click right
Ctrl+wheel, Ctrl+scroll

The first step is to agree the writing style in the team.

Based on the Microsoft recommendations 
(https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/style-guide/
a-z-word-list-term-collections/term-collections/mouse-mouse-interaction-terms[1]
 ) the
following example sentence can be changed:

Original from user manual:
You can resize the height of attached view or dictionary view using Ctrl+wheel.

Example for a possible change:
You can resize the height of attached view or dictionary view by while selected 
ctrl key and
rotate the mouse wheel.

Feel free to discuss this topic and make many suggestions!

PS: I'm to a native speaker!
