SeaMonkey never had the best implementation of mouse wheel scrolling,
but in 2.32.1 (and possibly earlier) it appears to be nonexistent.
This
is true even in Safe Mode.
By contrast, Fire Fox and Pale Moon work as they should on my Win7
PCs.
Any workaround for this?
In case it wasn't obvious (probably it wasn't) I was referring to
clicking the middle button and then moving the entire mouse N-S-E-W,
not
rotating the wheel itself.
What is that supposed to do?
When I go to <http://www.wunderground.com> enter my location, click
the middle button when focused on the static page, move the mouse
N-S-E-W, nothing happens.
When I do the same in the map, the map moves N-S-E and W.
The same occurs in my Firefox.
If I press the wheel down in SeaMonkey over a link, my preferences cause
that link to open in a new tab (unless the link is coded in JavaScript).
If I press the wheel down in SeaMonkey away from any link, I get a
circular icon with a black dot in the center and black triangles above
and below that dot. As long as that icon is visible, moving my cursor
away from it causes scrolling in the direction of my cursor. The
farther my cursor is from the icon, the faster the scrolling. The icon,
however, remains static within the window as the window's content moves.
To clear the icon and stop this form of scrolling, I merely press the
wheel down again, not necessarily near the icon.
This works in SeaMonkey, Thunderbird (not in the compose window), Word,
Excel, and possibly other applications. In some cases, the icon appears
different. In Windows Photo Editor, I have to hold the wheel down for
this type of scrolling. This does not work in Notepad or Wordpad.
Just to add to your description, the scrolling speed increases in direct
proportion to the distance you move the mouse away from its initial
reference point, the stationary icon.
Have you tried about:config and then filter for scroll
to see what the settings are set at?
I use old SM1119 and the mousewheelscroll works for me.
It also works in composer.
