Horizontal scroll in Lister

Post by *Thany »

I can't use the scrollwheel in Lister to scroll horizontally.

I can hold Shift and scroll the scrollwheel sure, but what about clicking the scrollwheel sideways? Doesn't work. It's a standard Windows thing, afaik, and it works mostly everywhere a horizontal scrollbar appears.

I have searched for that and it seems that there is a message WM_MOUSEHWHEEL for such wheels. Unfortunately I have never seen a mouse which supports this, can you recommend one which isn't super expensive (e.g. gaming mouse)?

If you are using the 32-bit version of TC, you can install ScrollTC as a WDX module (including as a child plugin Autorun.wdx). There is an option in the configurator that is responsible for tilting the wheel for horizontal scrolling.

I have added this to TC 10.51 release candidate 1 and newer, can anyone with a mouse with tilt wheel test this, please?
I tested it with a Logitech M-U0007 mouse.

08.08.22 Added: Lister, Compare by content: Support side scrolling by tilting mouse wheel left/right (only supported by some mice). Faster with Ctrl pressed (32/64)
