Can't scroll VB6 IDE code window after upgrading to v2.6.2

Post by wisekat »

I use this wonderful product to enable mouse wheel scrolling inside the VB6 IDE. I redefine the 'Wheel Up'/'Wheel Down' mouse buttons as 'Scroll Window Up'/'Scroll Window Down', and set the Scroll Method to 1 (Scroll MSG). This had worked ok before I upgraded to the v2.6.2.

Is it a bug in the new version? Is there any other way to make it work in the latest version of the tool?

The attached profile is working fine in 2.6.2 for me (as it did in older versions).
Fix scroll in VB6.xmbcs
Give that one a try and see if it helps.

The only difference with what you suggested is that I did not change my scroll wheel definition. In fact, that must be the problem. If you change the scroll definition then the chances are it is ignoring the scroll method and doing the action (scroll up/down). Try the attached profile or just set the scroll wheel back to "Nothing dont intercept" for the VB6 profile and see if that works.

Thanks,
Phil

Thank you! This works.

My profile also started to work as expected after I had set the 'Wheel Up'/'Wheel Down' buttons to the default values ("** Same as Default Profile **").

Strange. I have been using my redefined keys for a year or more, and it worked ok - before the upgrade to the v2.6.2.

In any case, thank you for the solved problem. Keep up the good work - it really helps all us in our everyday work.

I think, it is possible that I changed the behaviour of the action scroll up/down because what would be the point of using that action if the wheel already does it.... I will have to check though because things like change movement to scroll and assigning other buttons to scroll may be broken. But at least it is working for you again now :)

Lol at awakening a thread after 11 years... But even more surprising, people are still using VB6... Wow will it ever die?!
