# Version info: Version: 7.3.1.3 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 30(Build:3) CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Ubuntu package version: 1:7.3.1~rc3-0ubuntu0.20.04.1~lo1 Calc: threaded Linux: Linux Mint 20.3 Cinnamon # Steps to reproduce 1. Open/create a LO Calc file with more rows than can be displayed on the screen 2. Position mouse pointer on the index (leftmost column with not-editable enumeration of rows) 3. Scroll up/down # Observed behavior Scrolling with the mouse wheel has no effect. This behavior seems counter-intuitive as the index moves together with the rest of the sheet if scrolling is performed when the mouse pointer is above data cells. # Expected behavior Scrolling moves the sheet and changes the content that is displayed on the screen.
Reproducible on: Version: 7.4.0.0.alpha0+ / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 678446780446ae568ee8b1b814158c54ea5e393f CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.13; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Created attachment 180532 [details] Screen recording of mouse scrolling I made a short video trying to reproduce the bug and the sheet is scrolling fine for me. Note that I positioned the mouse where you mentioned and used the scroll wheel to scroll up and down. Can you confirm if the video I made is what your report is about?

I can reproduce the behavior shown in the video. However, this is not what my report is about. In my case, I place the mouse pointer over the cells of the left-most column that display a value (e.g. 1, 2, 3, ...). With this, scrolling is still not possible. The same applies for the header row (displays A, B, C, ...). However, scrolling apparently is possible when the mouse pointer is place in the top-left cell (cell that is part of index column and header row) and when the mouse pointer is placed above control buttons such as the button to toggle the text to be bold.

I can't reproduce this. Placing the mouse over the cells with value in the left-most column and using the scroll wheel works fine for me. > The same applies for the header row (displays A, B, C, ...) Scrolling when the mouse is placed over column names is indeed not possible, but this how it was designed to be. Can you provide a video or a file where the problem happens? This will help me test if this is indeed a bug.
Created attachment 180568 [details] Annotated Screenshot to clarify issue
I created an annotated screenshot (see attachments) to try to clarify the problem. This issue is about the orange areas. It might be that the behavior to not support scrolling in those areas is intentional. However, as originally stated, the current behavior seems counter-intuitive as the index moves together with the rest of the sheet when scrolling is performed.
Reproducible with Version: 7.5.0.0.alpha0+ / LibreOffice Community Build ID: a0bc0cc81b597aa81189355a8125753d6b873cce CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: cs-CZ (cs_CZ.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded and Version 4.1.0.0.alpha0+ (Build ID: efca6f15609322f62a35619619a6d5fe5c9bd5a) Not sure it's a bug or not, but for instance a Gnumeric support this - scroll over row index.
I asked in the dev chat and it doesn't seem there is any practical reason to disallow scrolling in those areas, so let's set to NEW.
Also in Version: 7.6.0.0.alpha1+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 7daf830830609cbb13a01ae55634187718c84d8a CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 6.2; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: ro-RO (ro_RO.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded
