I haven't heard back from anyone on this bug, and I'm not quite sure what to 
make of it. Any advice would be much appreciated. Even if it is just to confirm 
there's nothing one can do about it.

Anyone running Flex in Safari 6 or newer should encounter this bug (e.g. the 
mouse wheel cannot be used to scroll, for ANY component). 

I found the correct bug link at Adobe, which they closed, believing it is an 
Apple bug. 

https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3302758 

This has been a bug for years. 

Could anyone vouch for a method that works around this bug? What do developers 
do to solve this? 

Or, do companies just tell their customers NOT to use Safari browser when 
running Flex applications?

I came across this thread that seems to indicate using a mouse wheel to scroll 
components is a known bug in Safari: 

https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1150756?start=0&tstart=0 

Can anyone confirm? 

The link at the bottom to track the bug is broken. Anyone know the status (or 
the correct link)? 

I'm using Flex SDK 4.12. Is this a Flash Player, Safari, or Flex bug? 

The workarounds cited in the above thread are quite old. Is there any 
conventional wisdom how to solve this issue? I assume all apps depend on using 
mouse wheels to scroll components. How do people address it? What do you 
recommend? 

Thanks in advance for any comments.

I should clarify... the scroll bars work in all browsers when I click and drag 
the scroll thumb manually. However, in Safari, moving the mouse's thumb wheel 
does not produce scrolling, whereas in FF and Chrome it does.

Using Safari 7.0.5 in Mac OSX 10.9.4, and scrollbar is not working on any 
component, nor on examples I can find online like the one located at the bottom 
of this webpage: 

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/spark/components/HScrollBar.html
 

Using FP 12.0.0.44 debug version. 

However, scrollbars work in Chrome and FF. Anyone ever seen this behavior 
before?
