Description Christian Boltz 2005-04-08 21:09:20 UTC

I have a laptop with synaptics touchpad. Using the touchpad, I can scroll 
vertically and horicontally in many applications. xev recognices the scrolling 
as mouse buttons 4, 5, 6 and 7. 
 
Unfortunaly, horicontal scrolling with the touchpad doesn't work in Konqueror 
and KMail's message area - so it seems to be a KHTML problem. 
When trying to scroll horicontally, KHTML scrolls vertically instead. 
 
To reproduce: 
- open any website in Konqueror 
- reduce window width until a horicontal scrollbar appears 
- try to scroll horicontally using the touchpad (the mouse pointer 
  must _not_ be over the scrollbar!)

Lubos is _the_ expert when it comes to khtml scrolling

*** Bug 104599 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 3 Dirk Mueller 2005-08-14 23:47:33 UTC

totally strange, because KHTML doesn't do anything different with wheel 
events.

Comment 4 Dirk Mueller 2005-08-14 23:50:13 UTC

even more strange because KHTML was the very first application that supported 
horizontal wheel scrolling.

Comment 5 Dirk Mueller 2005-08-15 02:27:55 UTC

argh.. caused by a suse patch.

Comment 6 Christian Boltz 2005-10-19 23:17:50 UTC

This bug still exists in 10.0 final :-(

BTW: I could also reproduce the funny behaviour described in #104599 - it always appears in the first Konqueror window you open directly after login. (It won't happen in later opened Konqueror / KHTML windows.)

Comment 7 Lubos Lunak 2005-12-06 17:20:37 UTC

Apparently already fixed by Dirk.

Comment 8 Christian Boltz 2005-12-22 22:16:32 UTC

I just installed KDE 3.5 from supplementary - it finally works :-)

BTW: Correct bug status would be "VERIFIED FIXED"
