Thank you Alex. It's just that we've been using Flex for for the past 4
years and fortunately for us we've managed without bothering anyone on the
mailing list... The first question I ever post, i get no response.

I will use the mailing list and will try being more explicit onwards.

Anyway, I did some more digging and i found threads related to my issue...
Might help shed some light.

*Thread:*
https://getsatisfaction.com/adobe/topics/air_applications_and_flash_ignore_horizontal_scrolling_in_os_x
 AIR applications and Flash ignore horizontal scrolling in OS X.
In OS X, there is system-wide support for multidirectional (horizontal and
vertical) scrolling. On laptops, this is accessed by moving two fingers
together on the touchpad. On any mac, this is accessible through the
2-dimensional scroll ball on the mighty mouse. Flash/AIR recognizes the
vertical component of this motion just fine, but completely ignores the
horizontal component, even when interacting with a UI element that has both
a horizontal and a vertical scroll bar
*Bug Base*

PS: This is extremely important for us as we have a calendar implemented
with s:DataGrid it has over 50 columns. On Mac users are not being able to
scroll horizontally by swiping two fingers right or left on the touch pad.
Instead it's taking them away from the page. This behavior works fine on
other html websites.

I'm open for any suggestion or a practical workarounds.

Thanks Again.

Kind Regards,


 Ronny Shibley, Eng
