bug when scrolling list/tree

Post by Muroph »

when you see a scroll bar (is that the name?) on the list or tree, try pulling it beyond it's limits.
e.g. if you are on the top of the list, pull that thingy all the way down and keep pulling 'till your mouse is over the info panel.
the list/tree will jump back to the position it was before scrolling.

can someone check if this is a bug?
i think i've seen it happening in some other app as well, but i couldn't reproduce it on the ones i tried.

that's standard windows behaviour. as long as the mouse button is down you have to be in a radius of ~50px or so to actually move the bar. if you move outside it jumps to the previous location, if you move back in (still mouse button down) it jumps back to the position where you dragged it to.

No bug.

i thought it might not be a bug.
but i still can't reproduce it in other apps, not even windows explorer.
weird...

It works like that here (XP SP3) in WE, Notepad, the command prompt, and Task Manager. :?

windowblinds was the culprit.
looks like it removes the 50 pixel limit.
i changed to the default xp skin and it went back to normal.
the other place i've seen this "bug" is actually on the only app i've set not to be skinned.
now i see that firefox (i'm using a ff skin with custom scroll bar) also has the 50px limit.

but now i'm curious.
if xy IS skinned, why does it behave differently?

Try the Catalog scrollbars. Do they behave differently as well?

no 50 pixel limit there.
this is the other reason i thought it was a bug.
i just forgot to mention :oops:

Okay, I thought so. That's not a bug, that's VB scrollbar controls. :) I will soon replace them by something better as already done with catalog. This will happen when I add dual pane.
