Re: [TCLCORE] TIP 474: "Treat the mouse wheel events in a uniform way" again

[Arjen M. <Arj...@de...>]

Hi everyone,

Interesting and obviously there is more to the mouse wheel events than I thought at first. I will have to update the TIP (and the implementation so far) to at least make room for horizontal mouse wheel events. I am not sure I can provide a proper implementation for them, though some coherent picture is beginning to form ...

Regards,

Arjen
