IDE: scrolling in procedures window scroll program itself

Post by morosh »

Hello:
I noticed recently that scrolling in the procedures names window to the right, scroll the main program itself (even with up & down keys), the only way is to click on the right slider.
it's more convenient if we can scroll in the procedures'names window.

thanks

I have a feeling the behaviour is broken from previous versions. I'm sure if you gave the procedures pane the focus (clicking in it) then using scrollwheel, it did work as expected previously. Not 100% sure tho :)

I hope this and the autocomplete-list-visually-blocks-current-line bug get fixed for the next beta.

This is normal Windows behavior and has nothing to do with the IDE. Your mouse is scrolling whatever has focus which may (or may not) be the code area of the IDE.

Windows 10 (and maybe some earlier) allows you to change this behavior.

if you are on a laptop, some touchpad drivers allow you to change this as well.

This has nothing to do with the version of the Ide, it has only a limited relation to the OS version and also has nothing to do with a standard behavior of Windows. It has primarily to do with how it is programmed.

- In Windows Explorer, the gadget is scrolled with the active focus.
- In the Ide of Visual-Studio, the gadget under the mouse is scrolled.
- List could be continued in both directions.

This was discussed here a long time ago.

Since I would prefer the version to scroll the gadget under the mouse pointer also in Win7, there is a
