Minor scrollwheel prob inside popup windows
« on: May 10, 2008, 12:40:11 am »
Greetings everyone.

(Using Windows)
Sometimes when i middleclick or scrollwheel inside a popup window (with a scrollable pane) I get stuck in scroll mode.
Then, the scrollable pane in question scrolls up/down very quickly just by moving the mouse around.  Sometimes i cannot get out of this mode and must re-log.

Not sure if this is a feature, but i would like to disable the middle-click in the windows, as this seems to get me 'stuck' more than anything else.
Also, I would like to disable "grabbing' or 'selecting' items within popup windows by turning the scroll wheel.

Understand this is something I try not to do, so I haven't fully experimented with it.

Anybody have any thoughts on this?  Looked through the forums and bugtracker first.
Not a real big issue, just moderately annoying.

***EDIT
Athalon 64 FX51
Nvidia 7800gs (agp8x)

Thanks everyone,
laters,

Just logged in and tried that.
I disabled every use of middleclick/scrollwheel i could find.
Middleclick still picks up full stacks.
Scrollwheel up/down still acts like a left-click (ie. how many do you want to pick up).  <--- This is the feature I would like to disable.

I think that the scroll wheel having two simultaneous 'actions' while in a scrollable pane is where the engine is sometimes getting confused.

I think that is what Caarrie means.  The feature was added into psclient to make training easier, but now the new button in 0.4.00's training window makes it obsolete.
