Please download a new version of the ScrollMessageSniffer:

There is a dummy scrollbar now that should scroll if the wheel/scrolling message is detected.
Also watch value
numWheelScrollLines (should be printed in the green field when scrolling). It should be > 0!

I see neither a value show up in the green area nor the scroll bar move. So, in case I did something wrong, I created a screen recording of my actions. It's an SWF file - let me know if you have trouble viewing it.

Ultra-weird. I looking at it as if you just had proved to me that 1+1=3. Your movie (BTW, what software do you use for it??) is not possible according to my source code.

Meditating...

[These results are] not possible according to my source code.
Code never lies!
What software do you use for [screen recording]?
I just grabbed Camtasia (
http://www.techsmith.com/camtasia.asp). There is a free trial. There are also numerous freeware screen recorders (
http://camstudio.org/), but I was having a devil of a time this morning getting the downloads for them to complete.

Well, when I select an item in the upper right box, and then slide my finger up/down against the right edge of my pad (the scroll area that I've defined), the list items 'spin' up/down as they should, though the nbrs of items in list isn't really enough to see effect for more than a instant.
Now, I can't get ANY scrolling of any type to occur in the green box, maybe because there isn't a scroll bar within field itself and something there to scroll that can be detected?

This is one of my theories as well...

Now the box is either green or violett, but there should be something in it and the scrollbar should react
if you get message
20A.

Are you saying, "Am I too cheap to buy a screen recording program for $300?" or "Is XYplorer far too cheap?"
I'm glad I already have my lifetime license if it's the latter.
And $300 is nothing. The big daddy,
Adobe's Captivate is $700.

The box is green at start up. It turns violet when I start scrolling, and it contains:
21:15:08
Delta = -1
Shift = 0
X = 333 (something to that effect)
Y = 444
numWheelScrollLines = 3
With the mouse pointer over the colored area, the scrollbar on its right scrolls up and down as I move over the scroll area on the thouchpad.
When scrolling in the colored box the messages are: (the first message is probably the positionning of the mouse and the last one is the click on the Copy button)
21:15:55 hWnd=80466 uMsg= 111 wHi=0 wLo=5 lHi=7 lLo=1246
21:15:59 hWnd=80466 uMsg= 20A wHi=-120 wLo=0 lHi=305 lLo=319
21:16:00 hWnd=80466 uMsg= 20A wHi=-120 wLo=0 lHi=305 lLo=319

21:16:00 hWnd=80466 uMsg= 20A wHi=-120 wLo=0 lHi=305 lLo=319
21:16:01 hWnd=80466 uMsg= 20A wHi=-128 wLo=0 lHi=305 lLo=319
21:16:03 hWnd=80466 uMsg= 20A wHi=120 wLo=0 lHi=305 lLo=319
21:16:04 hWnd=80466 uMsg= 20A wHi=120 wLo=0 lHi=305 lLo=319
21:16:04 hWnd=80466 uMsg= 20A wHi=120 wLo=0 lHi=305 lLo=319
21:16:11 hWnd=80466 uMsg= 21 wHi=8 wLo=1126 lHi=513 lLo=1
When scrolling in the top right box the messages are:
21:18:50 hWnd=80466 uMsg= 111 wHi=0 wLo=5 lHi=7 lLo=1246
21:18:55 hWnd=80466 uMsg= 21 wHi=8 wLo=1126 lHi=513 lLo=1
21:18:55 hWnd=80466 uMsg= 111 wHi=4 wLo=7 lHi=9 lLo=330
21:18:55 hWnd=80466 uMsg= 131 wHi=0 wLo=8 lHi=59 lLo=152
21:18:55 hWnd=80466 uMsg= 111 wHi=1 wLo=7 lHi=9 lLo=330
21:19:01 hWnd=80466 uMsg= 21 wHi=8 wLo=1126 lHi=513 lLo=1
21:19:01 hWnd=80466 uMsg= 111 wHi=5 wLo=7 lHi=9 lLo=330
21:19:01 hWnd=80466 uMsg= 111 wHi=5 wLo=7 lHi=9 lLo=330
Note that scrolling in the top-right box works correctly, but does not produces messages in the message box - only the selection and the click Copy (or Clear) produce the messages you see above (4 per click).

FWIW, I still don't get any reaction or msgs to scroll attempts within the green box.

Here is my run. Another swf, but hosted in a different place - it seems faster.

Wow. So the issue, at least in your case (and as it looks also raananb's case) is quite trivial: the scrolling message was correctly fired but the control to scroll was not correctly determined! I'm now looking into why not...

Just for the fun of confusion, I don't get any 20A and never see any info on the green box, but I do get my scrolling to work perfectly so it's all fine by me
Code: Select all

PS: Okay it's actually due to the great
KatMouse, without which I couldn't live, when disabled I go get the expected 20A & info on the green box...

You sure know how to shock me.
Okay, Please download a new version #4 of the ScrollMessageSniffer again:
http://www.xyplorer.com/download/Scroll ... niffer.zip
Green box info:
Code: Select all
22:13:33
Delta = -1
Shift = 0
X/Y = 265/221
Mouse.X/Y = 265/221
hWnd Mouse Over = 15533018
numWheelScrollLines = 6
Please compare the numbers:
X/Y =
265/221
Mouse.X/Y =
265/221
Are they identical as in my example? If not we found the culprit...
