Is there a way to scroll the UI with building stats?

Don't know how to use a machine? Looking for efficient setups? Stuck in a mission?

I'm talking about this part of the UI.

I found out that if you place your camera in such a way that the building in question is under the scrollable area, then when your hover your mouse over it the mouse wheel will scroll the UI. But this is very tedious.

You can scroll the tooltip with shift + scroll wheel.

I wanted to tell him earlier but I was not 100% sure because I always forget to test in game. It was like a mythical rumor to me. This game need a list of ALL the hidden shortcuts it seems...
