Re: [Veusz-discuss] Accidentally Scrolling in Drop Down Boxes

Dear all, Unfortunately I don't think there is any "system level" tweak to change the behaviour. The behaviour can be changed from the code (as suggested by Steve) by defining a class which does not get focus and scroll (in veusz/setting/controls.py) class NoWheelComboBox(qt4.QComboBox): def

Re: [Veusz-discuss] Accidentally Scrolling in Drop Down Boxes

Thanks for the fast reply. Scrolling is possible in any theme working on Windows. They seem to only change the appearance but not the window behavior. I guess I simply have to be more careful with the scroll wheel :-). Simon On 2015-10-02 09:59 AM, Jeremy Sanders wrote: > On 02/10/15 09:26,

Re: [Veusz-discuss] Accidentally Scrolling in Drop Down Boxes

This scrolling in the pull-down menu also happens on the Mac, and I’ve had to learn to scroll carefully in the settings pane. If there were a way to disable it, I would be very interested. My guess is somewhere inside Qt since that is generating the widgets etc. Andy On Oct 2, 2015, at 3:52

Re: [Veusz-discuss] Accidentally Scrolling in Drop Down Boxes

I think that this behavior can be changed by setting the widget FocusPolicy to StrongFocus instead of WheelFocus. This would require that the widget be clicked or selected using the tab key, before it accepts input. With WheelFocus, the widget is activated by mouse scroll wheel actions, which

Re: [Veusz-discuss] Accidentally Scrolling in Drop Down Boxes

Hi Jeremy, I noticed this on my Windows 8.1 (Veusz 1.23.1), so I guess I cannot change any theme or behavior. I checked it again and it's possible to scroll through values in every list in the Formatting and Properties windows. Best Regards Simon On 2015-10-02 08:52 AM, Jeremy Sanders wrote: >

[Veusz-discuss] Accidentally Scrolling in Drop Down Boxes

Hi everybody, lately I often accidentally scroll properties (e.g. Color, Direction, ...) or data sets (X data, Y data) when I want to scroll the windows view because it doesn't fit entirely on my screen. Sometimes I don't detect it in that moment and when I come back to the plot I find it kind of

Re: [Veusz-discuss] Accidentally Scrolling in Drop Down Boxes

I’ve had that happen to me too. I never use the “scroll” capability in those dropdowns. I think that may just be a property of the Qt widget, though, and don’t know offhand if it can be toggled. Steve > On Oct 1, 2015, at 7:44 AM, Simon Kleinknecht >
