cp->mmp: seems to work in all core Gnome2 applications, does not work in Mozilla. I'm not sure if this is a usefull feature, if I need to position the mouse over the scrollbar anyway then I have no real advantage compared to click and move the scrollbar. The advantage is that you don't have to search for the slider, the slider can be very small in wide tables. I noticed this too. I think this is an X-mouse thing. I don't think windows programs do this. Normally, in windows, scroll wheel events don't change the focus (they're treated more like keyboard events most of the time). There really should be some easy way of scrolling horizontally with the scroll wheel, so either scroll over horizontal scrollbar or shift/alt+scroll (see Issue 21925, Issue 17162, Issue 16736 and (more generally) Issue 18421). I think implementing either one of these would probably stem the deluge of feature requests for this kind of thing :P SBA: Duplicate of issue 21925? Please see my comments in that one. I am no longer officially active in OOo. Please take over. |
