Description skagon 2023-10-06 23:29:21 UTC
Description:
The functionality of the mouse scroll wheel when the mouse pointer is directly on a scrollbar is all over the place, in the "Customise" dialog.

Open the Customise dialog, go to "Keyboard" tab (it's an example, the keyboard tab has the most scrollbars), place the mouse pointer directly on a scrollbar (don't click). Scroll with the mouse's scroll wheel. Go to another scrollbar (there are plenty in that page). Scroll again. You should be seeing weird results, such as the "Shortcut keys" list scrolling, even though your mouse is on the "Function" list scrollbar, etc.

In the "Menus" page of the Customise dialog, when the "Search" text field is active, scrolling on the scrollbars doesn't do anything (it should). Select anything else, then move the mouse pointer to a different scrollbar, scroll with the wheel, different things will scroll, rather than the scrollbar directly under the mouse pointer.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Tools – Customise
2. Go to Keyboard (as an example)
3. Move the mouse pointer on the scrollbar of i.e. "Function" list
4. Scroll using the mouse scroll wheel
5. Enjoy

Actual Results:
The thing that was last clicked on will scroll, even though the mouse pointer is over a different scrollbar.

Expected Results:
The scrollbar directly under the pointer should scroll. It does not.


Reproducible: Always
