Re: [flexcoders] Re: mouse wheel behaviour mxml and actionscript based components

Hi
Sorry I didn't get back to you but I couldn't answer this question.

 The problems are on Firefox 3.0.3 - windows - XP...

That is why, I still didn't have confidence to upgrade, I'm still using 2 so
I can't see your bug.

   Jim, you are right! In IE 7 the trees scroll without any extra

 This is strange. Firefox used to be my favorite, but lately i have
 lots of wierd problems with flash... Videos not playing (youtube and
 others), audio is mute after a while and i need to restart and now this...

 Can anybody else test this situation on firefox / windows xp or vista?

 TIA,

 Usually the reason for no mouse wheel events is a lack of

 Can you give some examples (mxml/as) of what 'doesn't' work for
  you?

 Anyway, you need a background color for the control to
  broadcast mouse
 wheel events.

 Other than that it's just a guess what the problem could be
  without an

Hello,

adobe's examples (component explorer for example) works ok (with mouse wheel
support) even in firefox 3...

Maybe it has to do with the way the flex/flash wrapperis implemented inside
the container html page...

I will investigate as soon as i find some time and let you knowof the
results...
