Mouse scroll wheel changes active document tabs - why? #571

Open BAJ716 opened 4 years ago

BAJ716 commented 4 years ago

I don't know if this a bug or a feature? If it's a feature, Is there a way to disable it? I've used Pluma for years and never seen this before recently. It's bugging the heck out of me.

Expected behaviour

Scroll to the top or bottom of a file and keep scrolling the same direction, nothing should happen

Actual behaviour

Scroll to the top or bottom of a file and keep scrolling the same direction, Pluma changes to the next document tab left (scroll up) or right (scroll down).

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

Open several documents in Pluma, use mouse scroll wheel as described above.

It is a feature, but I agree with you, it must be as optional, adding "feature request" label...

I don't see this behavior in 1.24. And IMO this would be a bug, I guess in the "scrolling over notebook tabs switches tabs" code.

with pluma 1.20.1 I have a similar issue only when I'm using the wheel scroller on a short file (i.e. where all the file lines are visible in the window without scrolling)

Pretty sure this was an intentionally added feature with gtk3. I recall complaints that this worked with gtk2 originally and was lost in the gtk 3 transition, we had to intentionally bring it back
