Stunning advice. Although it means completely redesigning the packaging for our product (to accommodate shrink-wrapped cheese), we have decided to go ahead and implement your amazing suggestion. We are also planning on offering an optional branded mouse-wheel - one that can really let the mouse do it's thing.

I seem to recall that Cheese usually gets good results within an hour or two. If you want to get the mouses attention faster then use warm fried wafting bacon. It kind of depends on the mouse, if it really likes the wheel you may have to use drastic measures.

Hope that helps :D

We have a component that can use the mouse wheel - unfortunately, we also use another component (not ours) that uses the mouse wheel. The standard windows convention seems to be that whatever window has the focus gets to process the message first. So even though the mouse is over our component when the mouse wheel is rolled, the other component gets the message.

I seem to remember some time ago seeing how to replace the main TApplication message handler with your own, but can't remember how now. Is this possible? What is the technique?
