Mouse wheel control isolation in html embed

I've been working on building a flash website, embedding it in html, and have one minor annoying feature that I'm trying to figure out how to get rid of... I've got it so that when the mouse hovers over scrollable content, the mousewheel can be used to scroll the text up and down - if the mouse is over other content in the embedded flash, it doesn't scroll that text section, just the browser window, which is perfect. The problem is that while the mousewheel is scrolling the proper text up and down, the browser is also affected, causing the whole page to bobble up and down as well (the network I'm building it on prevents scaling to fit multiple resolutions, so I'm stuck with fitting it to the resolution that most of our computers use and having other users deal with it being a little small or a little oversized). Is there some way to adjust the code so that when the scrollable text area picks up on the mouseover listen event to allow scrolling via mousewheel, it turns off the browser's scrolling, or am I just stuck with it?

The issue is that once scrolling has reached the bottom of the text area, and there is no more downward scrolling possible, the mouse's scroll wheel starts affecting the browser. The browser is, at this point, now capturing the mosue wheel event, and doing what it "thinks" it should be doing (default behavior). In your case, you want to prevent that...I think what you are looking for is a JavaScript solution (which I don't know of) that prevents the HTML page from receiving the mouse wheel scroll event. It is probably a tag-team effort of Flash getting focus (such as when it's been clicked on), and Flash losing focus, while telling JavaScript that fact so it can prevent handling the wheel event.
Here are some links for more background info:
http://www.nbilyk.com/flash-prevent-browser-scroll
http://fcontheweb.com/articles/scrollwheel/
A seperate suggestion that probably does nothing to help you out is to recommend if there is a Flash application in HTML, that it be the only application, without other HTML content requiring page scrolling. This is more of an overall design issue, as the rules of reality apply, not very practical for every case, either ;-)

  • Mouse wheel event coordinates issue in LV2013

    I realized some unexpected behavior when using the mouse wheel event of an XYGraph:
    The event contains the mouse coordinates which should be relative to the origin of the pane according to the LabVIEW help (see Mouse Wheel (Control Event)). In my case these coordinates are shifted. At the same time, the coordinates returned by the Mouse Move and Mouse Down events are correct. I think the Mouse Move, Mouse Down and Mouse Wheel Event coords should all be the same, i.e. relative to the owning pane's origin? The graph is in a window divided by splitters. I am using LabVIEW 2013 Professional Development System.

    Hi maxicon,
    I tried to reproduce your described behavior - It works as expected (see the attached VI).
    Please try to reproduce the issue again with the attached VI.
    1. Move the mouse and see coords changing.
    2. Operate the mouse wheel and see the coords are the same.
    P.S. Zero-coordinates are marked in the frontpanel:
    Kind regards,
    Heinz

  • When I want to zoom in or zoom out with the mouse wheel and CONTROL button the letters get larger but remain within the same size paragraph and any pictures remain the same. I want the entire page to zoom.

    <blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>

    I want the entire page to zoom in and out when I use CONTROL + mouse wheel. Now the letters get larger but remain in the same size paragraph and also the pictures stay the same.

    It is indeed scandalous that Apple sells useless scanned music scores. There is a warning when you chose to download music tabs or notes but it doesn't say that the score lines are very small and cannot be zoomed. I spent $30 on two books but cannot really use them on my MBA as you cannot zoom except for the double click which only works page per page and is only a small improvement.
    The only way I can use the score more or less is on my ipad in landscape mode by increasing the font size to the max. The music score then becomes wider and you can read 2-3 lines per page without glasses.
    If you could transfer the file to the pdf  "side" of the library in ibooks the zoom would work..
    What does work is using the accessibility zoom mode option+command+= to zoom and then option+command+\ to smooth the picture but then your whole display desktop etc. are zoomed in.

  • Chat& - Mouse Wheel in Screen Control

    The subscriber controller mouse wheel actions do not seem to be functioning in the publisher share area, insofar as scrolling the browser pane, either in "Window" or "Application" mode. Is this a limitation of the ConnectNow add-in, or do I need to manually set up this capability in the appilcation?

  • Finer control with mouse wheel (Windows)

    Lightroom is so much about speed of execution, and I would be even faster if it allowed me to use the mouse wheel to move sliders in the Development module effectively. Right now the mouse wheel moves the sliders in increments/decrements that are too large. E.g. slides for Recovery, Black and Fill Light go in steps of 3, the Brightness sometimes in steps of 9 sometimes of 10, depending on its current value, contrast in steps of 5. It is too coarse. All those slides should go 1 by 1, for fine tuning; color temperature should go, say, 100 by 100. For brisk adjustments I can already drag the slider or input a value.

    Did you check the settings in the mouse driver software in case something has changed?
    Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test.

  • Scroll wheel control for animation.

    Hello everyone!
    Is it possible to make mouse scroll control for simple animation? In other words; can i make SWF animation with scrolling wheel control when cursor is over? It's so handsome thing, but i didn,t find solution or code  for Flash, only Edge or html.
    Thank you!

    you can use a MouseEvent.MOUSE_WHEEL event listener for that and the delta property of the event in the listener function.

  • Issue with Adobe Muse parallax jitters with mouse wheel scrolling vertically.

    Hi all,
    I'm learning Adobe Muse for the first time to put together a wedding website (http://mattandsangeeta.businesscatalyst.com/index.html), so bear with me as I'm a novice at the software - though I do have the most up version, Adobe Muse CC 2014.
    So far, it's been an excellent platform, and for the most part the site functions incredibly well. However, one key flaw I've noticed in it is the parallax scrolling speed when using a mouse.
    The parallax portion of the site jitters badly, and while we've found a few improvements for the issue (the best was making sure there was nothing that had scrolling set to "0"), I'm still at a loss for how to get smooth scrolling transition speeds. Every forum Adobe has seems to be showcasing the features, and not troubleshooting this particular issue. A lot of posts are similar, but none seem to be resolved. I've noticed that other parallax pages are smoother with the mouse wheel scrolling down, so I'm hoping it's just an issue with Muse that has a setting or snippet of code that can remedy the issue.
    What makes me realize it's the mouse wheel scrolling, and not the site itself, is because whenever I access the site on my surface pro tablet, the parallax runs buttery smooth with touch control or even trackpad control. Same when you click the middle scroll button and pan down. Without any mouse wheel scrolling, it looks great! But with a mouse wheel, it hiccups constantly and ruins the effect.
    So, is there any way to smooth out the steps that the mouse wheel scrolling seems to be causing?
    Thanks in advance,
    Matt

    Thanks for the link, however that specific thread was one of the ones I referenced in my original post.
    In the beginning of the thread, it's clear that coding can fix the issue, though it's not recommended. More telling is that the response you referenced indicates that the issue is claimed to have been either fixed or mitigated In updated releases of Muse.
    As you pointed out earlier, however, Firefox displays the parallax a little better than Chrome, and much better than Internet Explorer. I'm assuming that Adobe Muse Creative Cloud 2014 release attempted to this issue.
    So my question kind of remains: am I missing a setting that would make the scrolling more smooth, or is it simply just a limitation of the browser / software / parallax combination?
    Thanks again for the responses.

  • Mouse Wheel Not working in a Browser

    I'm using AS3 and created a MOUSE WHEEL EventListener. It works fine when testing in the Flash authoring program...but not in the browser.
    (except In IE...which I found odd).
    I have looked around in different forums and many people have this problem and explanations on why it doesn't work.
    I believe the problem cannot be solved in Flash...but through JavaScript.

  • Drop-down list box and Mouse wheel.

    When a xft form doesn't fit in the web browser (using webaccess) because it's bigger, the drop-down list box control has a distinct behavior than other controls like select control in html or listbox in VB.
    When I click in the field to drop the list and scroll down the mouse wheel, the position of the control remains static while the form in the background scrolls down, so the drop-down list box is at the top of the other controls of the form. In most of the forms I've used, the "normal" behavior, if I can say it this way, is to scroll down the list. It doesn't disturb me at all, but some users have complained this behavior. Is there a patch for this control?
    I've using form designer 5.0 with AWS version 6.2.121.0
    Any help is appreciated,

    No patch that I am aware of. It could be related to a memory issue within the browser container. I have seen this behavour many times over when dealing with larger forms.

    There are a couple of timesaving tricks. Open an image and go to Layer> New Adjustment Layer> Brightness/Contrast.
    Click in the box that has the number at the right-hand end of the brightness slider. Now you can use the scroll wheel to increase/decrease the brightness.Hover the mouse over the word Brightness at the left-hand end of the brightness slider and the cursor will change to a double headed arrow with a pointing finger and hand in the middle. Now click and hold the left mouse button. Move the mouse left/right to decrease/increase the brightness level. Cheers,

  • How to use Mouse Wheel Events

    Hello Everyone

    able to scroll one row through mouse wheel scroller.
    Thanks

    please give me some suggestion around it.
    I want to scroll one row of datagrid with per mousewheel
    scroll. I am not getting how to use the scrollMouseWheelMultiplier

    please help me out around this.

  • How to remap mouse wheel in single application?

    Hello,
    I want to achieve simple thing - control audio in Smplayer using mouse wheel. The tricky part is that I need to control the master volume on my AV receiver because the audio in videos is played as bitstream (DTS/AC3 over SPDIF). I'm able to modify the mouse wheel actions in mplayer but unfortunatelly Smplayer doesn't allow such remapping: http://smplayer.sourceforge.net/forum/v … f=2&t=6077
    I already use xbindkeys with xvkbd for application specific remapping of both keyboard and mouse. I can remap the wheel for Smplayer window but I'm unable to figure out how to make sure the wheel will work for other applications as well - I'm just unable to simulate mouse wheel action for applications other than Smplayer. (Or is there any other way how to not modify the button for other applications?)
    If I try only simulating the wheel, it doesn't work...
    # .xbindkeysrc
    "xdotool click 4"
    m:0x0 + b:4
    # or
    "xvkbd -text "\m4""
    m:0x0 + b:4
    However if I add "sleep 0.2" before xvkbd or xdotool, it works (but this is unacceptable delay for me). Also if I try to simulate wheel on keyboard press, it works even without the sleep.
    Any help or suggestion?

    not really.. sorry

  • SWF in iFrame - How to get mouse wheel to work

    I have been searching for a solution to this for a few days
    without any luck. I was hoping someone here may have come across
    this problem and know of a solution, or know if it just is not
    possible.
    I have a static page which consists of an iframe, picture and
    a div with some links. The image is an image map and set to load
    all links within the iframe. The flash itself is a 360 degree
    panoramic view with hotspots (links) within the file that also
    point to other pages. My issue is that the mouse wheel scroll is
    supposed to be a zoom in/out feature, which work with the flash
    file and full screen view. However, when the file is loaded within
    the iframe, the scroll wheel on the mouse will only scroll the page
    and will not interact with the flash file at all.
    The problem seems to be with the following browsers (PC):
    Chrome 0.4
    Opera 9.5
    Firefox 3.0
    The zoom works in IE6, although the page does scroll with it.
    When I disabled the page from scrolling (see index2.html) the zoom
    stops working. This is probably due to the code used to disable the
    mouse. I really need to try to get the mouse wheel to zoom in
    FireFox 3 though. The large majority of our visitors are PC users
    with FireFox 3 or IE 7, so these are the two most important
    browsers to have working.
    The pages are still currently under development but examples
    are online here:
    http://www.utoledo.edu/campus/virtualtour/maincampus/index.html
    -Normal page
    http://www.utoledo.edu/campus/virtualtour/maincampus/index2.html
    -Page with scrolling disabled
    Does anyone have any ideas for a possible solution? Thanks
    for taking the time to help.

    As far as I know,there is no facility for detecting mouse scrolling wheel in JDK 1.3.
    Check it in the later releases of JDK.

  • Scroll with mouse wheel requires multiple "ticks" to start scrolling

    I recently got a new mouse, and now when using firefox the scroll wheel doesn't want to work correctly. Everywhere else I can do single scroll ticks to scroll content, but in firefox a single tick scroll is just ignored as are multiple ticks if done somewhat slow. In order to get firefox to actually scroll with the mouse wheel I have to quickly do a few ticks at once. Doing so makes for very inaccurate control.
    I've tried turning off smooth scroll, hardware acceleration, and pixel scroll, but none of those helped. Any help getting firefox to stop ignoring slow and single scroll ticks would be greatly appreciated.

    Did you check the settings in the mouse driver software in case something has changed?

  • [X300] Mouse Wheel Scroll Lines Setting does not stick

    I often use an external mouse (no additional driver needed). After every reboot, the setting "Mouse Wheel Scroll Lines" in Control-Panel -> Mouse -> Wheel is reset to 1 (I am using Vista). This is really annoying because it slows down scrolling extremely.
    Does anyone have the same problem?
    I think its caused somehow by the ALPS touchpad driver (The X300 has a really bad one, the Synaptics pads built in previous Thinkpads were WAY BETTER).

    wfaz wrote:
    VPN User ...
    Have you made any progress?  I am having no luck getting the X300 touchpad to scroll with MANY applications: Photoshop, Illustrator, Access to mention some.  I use Windows XP - another user has complained that with Vista he does not getting scrolling to work with iTunes, Live Search.  Plus, wheel events are not handled by the Remote Desktop, so anytime you are tunneling, you don't get touchpad scrolling.  I have been expecting a new UltraNav driver for months - but nothing yet.  I think I have tried every combination of touchpad and trackpoint settings possible, but maybe you know something I don't.
    WFaz
    I am sorry but the problem you describe is a completely different one. Personally, I don' t care for these few applications, especially iTunes and further rubbish. Fact is, the quality Ultranav2 Driver is much much worse compared to the Ultranav1 which uses a Synaptic touchpad. Responsiveness, accuracy, supported applications, bugs are much worse with the Ultranav2 used in X300.
    AFAIK adding applications to support the touchpad needs just adding them to some list in registry or what. But as I said, I never cared for that. The problem that the driver resets mouse settings when using it, I find much more disturbing.
