under X, the 4, 5, 6 and 7 buttons are reserved for scrolling events. it's been like that for years now, and since the GLX backend is supposed to run under X11 it's pretty much a given that Clutter should translate those button presses as scroll events. > Is my understanding correct? yes. > At least in my desktop, scroll-event doesn't take effect. it might mean that your X configuration is wrong or missing. the translation is also present in other toolkits, like GTK+, so you can test if a GTK+ application can generate scroll events. ciao, Emmanuele. -- Emmanuele Bassi, OpenedHand Ltd.
