mouse wheel

[idle]

I'm trying to figure out how to get the mouse wheel direction in a windowed screen with opengl subsytem

The SetWindowCallback tip I posted doesn't work once the screen is opened and I don't know if gdk_add_client_message_filter ()
would work either.

window callback

Any ideas?

Hello Idle

PB's own ExamineMouse() + MouseWheel() does not work? I have used it with a windowed screen, but not with openGL.

No the PB mousewheel doesn't work

When using OpenGL, I start with SDL to create the window for me:

Code: Select all

Screen = SDL_SetVideoMode_(width, height, depth, #SDL_OPENGL | #SDL_FULLSCREEN)

Then, to get your wheel events:

Code: Select all

While SDL_PollEvent_(@Event.SDL_Event)

    Select Event\Type
       Case #SDL_MOUSEBUTTONDOWN
                If Event\button\button = 4
                    MouseWheels + 1 ;will add to the scrolling
                ElseIf event\button\button = 5
                    MouseWheels - 1 ;will subtract from the scrolling
                EndIf
    EndSelect

Thanks for that, I will give it a go.
