Patcher is not scrollable on OSX #8

Open lokkiikkol opened 4 years ago

The patcher window is not scrollable with the trackpad on OSX, sidebar scrolling works.

This is on OSX 10.14.6

@lokkiikkol This is a tricky one. If you go into Preferences, there's actually a setting that controls Mouse Wheel Behavior. Set that to "Pan" to allow canvas scrolling. This is a remnant of the Piccolo zoomable canvas implementation which you can check out this way: without changing this behavior setting (leaving it at "Zoom"), from an open patch go to File -> New Piccolo View and then scroll with the trackpad. The canvas will zoom in and out.

Really this preference should be eliminated for the Swing canvas. Or possibly we'll move to the Piccolo scalable canvas if some of the lingering rough edges are worked out.

ah i see. the zooming is nice, a bit rough graphically still but very nice to get an overview and zoom in. maybe zooming could be enabled only when command (apple key) and the trackpad are used, because i still feel like scrolling is the much more common action. or make zoom a keyboard feature altogether by using some key combo to increase/decrease zoom-level.

The "zoom" option doesn't work for me (also OSX 10.14.6). But I'm good with the Pan for now.

Edit: If you could make the scroll/pan a bit faster, it would be great!
