Hi,

Please forgive me if this is a silly question, but I'm a newcommer to 
RISC OS and programming.


Is there a way to add mouse scroll wheel support an application 
written using the Dr Wimp BASIC library?

I'm using Dr Wimp 5.02 with RISC OS 5.21 on the Raspberry Pi


Many Thanks,
David

To do what? The Wimp takes scroll wheel motions and
translates them into window scroll actions, ie the same
as clicking on the UP and DN scroll icons.

I want the scroll wheel to make a window scroll up and down.
Currently the mouse wheel has no affect.

Many Thanks,
David

Perhaps you need to install HID.

A bit of digging shows you have to enable the scroll wheel
http://www.apdl.co.uk/riscworld/volume6/issue4/adjust/index.htm

Run !Boot
Input -> Mouse scroll -> Allow scroll wheel to control windows

The OP is using RISC OS 5 on a Raspberry Pi. I assume you are talking
about ROL's adjust product.

I have scroll wheel support working within RISC OS and other 
applications. !NetSurf etc...

The scroll wheel does nothing with my own applications made using Dr 
Wimp.

I tried !HID as John suggested, this did enable the scroll wheel, but 
caused my mouse to miss mouse clicks, I found I had to click the mouse 
button 4 or 5 times to launch an application. Also !HID gave me an 
error when I tried to edit it's configuration, which was a series of 
squares in an error window.

Many Thanks,
David
