I am, of course, biased, as I am the one who opened bug #1319. But I do think that horizontal scroll events really should scroll horizontal by default. That's the default GTK behaviour, used in all GTK programs by default. A thing I would like to know is, does these mice with back/forward buttons scroll horizontal as a mouse wheel would when the back/forward button is pressed and the cursor is hovering over some kind of view with a horizontal scrollbar? (That is, not in Firefox with default horizontal scroll configuration.) If they do behave like that, it's like, "How do we implement back/forward buttons in the easiest way without requiring special drivers?" "I have an idea: Let's misuse the horizontal scroll events! Nobody uses those anyway." > Benedikt Stefan _______________________________________________ Thunar-dev mailing list [email protected] http://foo-projects.org/mailman/listinfo/thunar-dev
