which preference for mouse-wheel scrolling number of lines?

2013-01-23 Thread Dan B.

Which preference(s) controls the number of lines scrolled in a web page
or in a mail message when the mouse wheel is rotated?

(Which setting is the one that changed from about 1 line to about 3 lines
somewhere between SeaMonkey 1.1.14 and 2.15.1?)

(I tried changing toolkit.scrollbox.verticalScrollDistance, but I didn't
notice any change.  Other preferences I've found when Google-searching
apparently are Firefox-specific and not in SeaMonkey.)

Thanks,
Daniel

To modify the new  improved scroll wheel settings, modify:

mousewheel.default.delta_multiplier_z;
mousewheel.default.delta_multiplier_y;
mousewheel.default.delta_multiplier_x;

All other 'Search: wheel' are set to default. The default settings are
'100'. I browse to a text only page
(http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~cking/low-latency-kernel/results.txt works
for me), and then modify. I found on my laptop screen if I set to
50,40,40 then I get 1 line scroll. The technical info seems to be here:

100, 85, 85 sets my scroll to 3 lines (forward and back).

In my profile, I added the following to the user.js file:

user_pref(toolkit.scrollbox.verticalScrollDistance, 1);
// vertical scroll only 1 line per click of keyboard or scrollbar arrow

The second line is merely a comment to remind me why I changed the the
default value, which was 3.
