Scroll wheel mouse support

#1 (**permalink**) December 29th, 2001

The only thing wrong with Limewire in my opinion is that it doesn't seem to support a scroll wheel on a mouse. Some of us users just like to scroll instead of pull that bar down.

Thanks

I would have to strongly second that. I bought a new mouse specifically for a scroll button and to not have it work in limewire is a real pain.

AFAIK, Java doesn't support the scroll wheel mouse.

The Java Text Editor, Jext (www.jext.org), does support the use of the scroll wheel - though I have no idea of how they do it. The wheel mouse plugin might not have been written in Java...?

I know they haven't implemented the scroll mouse for cross-platform compatibility, but how about making it an option?

Like, if you are running a Windows machine, it will be turned off, and if you aren't, then it will be turned off.
