Mouse wheel scrolling

wildfire142 · August 27th, 2013, 03:11 AM

I've been adding stuff for a star Wars based realm and after putting lots of details and snippets I find myself try to use my mouse wheel to scroll down and being slightly frustrated by having to find the scroll bar which often breaks my train of thought.

So asking if mouse wheel scrolling can be added please.

Okay feeling a little foolish scrolling works as long as you aren't clicked into and working on a snippet etc

I don't think that's completely true. There are plenty of times when I'm done with a snippet and it's saved or I'm not in it when scrolling doesn't work. And in any case I'd also like it to work even when I am in a snippet. +1 from me.

Same. I've never had the scroll wheel function as expected, whether with my mouse or the emulator region on my laptop touchpad. Additionally, my mouse has navigation buttons that are used to move back and forth in my browser and Windows Explorer history. It would be nice if they would have the same effect in Realm Works tabs.

Been working away and figured out as long as you haven't clicked on any part of the snippet or top in either view or edit mode then you can scroll, but would like to be able to scroll regardless of where our clicked on the topic/articles etc.

I catch myself using my mouse forward/back buttons all the time. I certainly want it myself, but I'll have to see if there's any "gotchas" involved.

Mousewheel support is pretty shady right now. I know there's some panels that just don't scroll no matter what (and should). I consider these bugs at this point. I don't know that I'll be able to find them all myself, so if you find a case where you think the scroll wheel should work and it doesn't, please report it as a bug.

I know you guys are busy. Can you take a moment for this. Haven't heard back since April 2013. Because there is so much editing and navigation from snip to snip - screen to screen etc..Wheel scroll is essential. Let us know what the status is. Thanks and RW rocks!! Thanks for all your hard work!

Definitely a +1 on this... with the amount of data entry involved complete functionality of mouse scrolling is almost a necessity.

+1 as well. Lack of mouse scroll when editing is the one thing I'd like to see fixed.
