Left/Right scroll direction is backwards

[DustinLuck]

I use a Dell laptop with a touchpad. In Windows touchpad settings, I have set the scrolling direction to Down motion scrolls up. In every other UI I have used, this not only reverses the up/down scroll direction but the left/right scroll direction as well. In Notepad3, only the up/down direction is reversed. This makes it very awkward to scroll left/right in Notepad3 as I have to fight my muscle memory.

I did some more testing. By switching my touchpad scrolling direction to Down motion scrolls down, I was able to see that the horizontal scroll direction is reversed regardless of the setting when using the scroll wheel (or touchpad gesture) left/right. The behavior is correct for Shift + Scroll Up/Down.
