Mouse wheel doesn't trigger any changes #95

Closed matteobad closed 5 years ago

Mouse wheel doesn't trigger any changes.

I would expect the mouse wheel to trigger a change. But when scrolling the wheel no changes occurs. I'm not entirely sure, but I think that a wheel event should be treated similarly to a mouse/pointer move event. Let me know what you think about this. Thanks in advance and keep up the great work.

Step to reproduce:

Open the demo
Start navigating with keyboard
Use the mouse wheel without moving the pointer
No changes in what-input or what-intent

Expected behavior:

what-intent should become mouse?

Hi @matteobad,

There actually is mousewheel support built in, but it appears that it's not functioning as it should so I'm going to take a look at it.

I made an update in the latest release (v5.2.3) that addresses mousewheel not always being detected. Please note that wheel, mousewheel, and DOMMouseScroll all report as mouse.

If you have any issues, please re-open this ticket.
