Seems like mouse wheel scroll direction is opposite in macos compared to windows etc so if we try to down-wheel scroll in macos when view position is at center of viewport (say element 3 is selected out of visible 7 elements), it cannot change viewposition as it cannot "scroll up" (since we are already at topmost viewport) whereas in windows, when we do down-wheel scroll in mouse wheel, it "scroll down" the viewport so viewposition is changed.

Any more comments @mrserb ?
