Thanks. Do you see a reason to prefer alt over shift or vice-versa for horizontal scrolling ? The apps that use shift for horizontal scrolling scroll *left* when the wheel goes *up*. Am I the only one to find that backward ? Does KDE scroll left or right for wheel up ? -- André Majorel http://www.teaser.fr/~amajorel/ _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
