GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 53134
small 1-month calendar handles mouse scroll wheel poorly
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Package: gnomecal Severity: normal Version: 1.2.0 Synopsis: small 1-month calendar handles mouse scroll wheel poorly Class: sw-bug Distribution: Debian testing/unstable System: Linux 2.2.17 i686 unknown C library: C library 2.2.2-4 C compiler: 2.95.3 glib: 1.2.10 GTK+: 1.2.10 ORBit: ORBit 0.5.7 gnome-libs: gnome-libs 1.2.13 libxml: 1.8.11 gnome-print: gnome-print <none> gnome-core: gnome-core 1.4.0.1 Description: The small 1-month calendar pane (upper right of Day View, lower left of Week View in default layout) will select the date under the pointer upon *any* mouse button click, including buttons 4 & 5, or scroll up and scroll down on the mouse wheel (not sure if those are in the right order). A much more intuitive behavior would be for the mouse scroll wheel to either have no effect, or to scroll the month forward/backward one. ------- Bug moved to this database by unknown@bugzilla.gnome.org 2001-04-12 04:30 ------- Unknown version 1.2.x in product gnome-pim. Setting version to the default, "unspecified". The original reporter (elliott@ejegg.com) of this bug does not have an account here. Reassigning to the exporter, unknown@bugzilla.gnome.org. Reassigning to the default owner of the component, gnome-pim-maint@bugzilla.gnome.org.
This is a problem with Gtk+'s GtkCalendar widget.
Will have no effect in 2.0. Putting it on the future milestone as a request for enhancement for it to actually do something.
Created attachment 11876 [details] [review] Patch to fix this in HEAD. Ok to commit?
Can we get this patch checked in? It seems safe and would add nice functionality.
