Re: [Cooker] imwheel problems

Yes, that's true but am I the only one that using the scroll button as double
click doesn't work for?  I think this feature has not worked even since ML
8.1.

Is that correct?

Cheers,

Jason

Thanks for the reply.

I already have an app-defaults file that I use with Netscape that I
got
from pclinuxonline that uses the scroll mouse but I like your way
better
because I can adjust the scroll rate ;)

Thanks again, I'll give it a try.

The important thing is, though, what should be in Mandrake 8.0 by
default?
I still believe imwheel stuffs up more than it fixes.

Sorry, replying to myself here

I tried your adjustment and it didn't work but I simply made the
changes in the app-defaults file and it's now even better with a 15
line scroll (I guess netscape lines are small!)

Thanks again.

Hello,

Try adding the following to $HOME/.Xdefaults

I hope kmail hasn't truncated the lines !!!

It's a very long time since I did any of this ! I think this is what you 
need and don't use imwheel, but then again I am probably completely wrong !!! 
 :-) As you can see button 5 will scroll down 6 lines and button 4 up 6 lines 
(just add / remove more LineUp()'s or LineDown()'s). You will also see that 
the right button does a 'Back' command, while the right button with mouse 
movement now brings up the pop-up menu, so don't get confused !!!

As far is imwheel is concerned it is possible to edit $HOME/imwheelrc and 
tell imwheel to ignore certain applications. I've done it for gtop, but have 
no idea of the command structure for Netscape.

Hope this helps,
Owen
