no Mouse Wheel event - to be used by script-code

Post by michel.eijgermans »

LS,

I missing the mouse Wheel event on Modules and other objects.


The Wheel event could be used for Zoom-In or -Out on Modules. If the wheel is used in combination with a 'CTRL-key' zoom functionality could be applied to the module. If the 'middle mouse button is 'pressed' a panning function could be applied to the module.

Because this kind of functionality is very common in websites like google Maps, more and more customers are missing this functions on the scada applications we make. What would be the best solution to solve this problem?

Hope someone has an idea!

We need to implement this in the UI so that it triggers a CTRL script. There is nothing you can do as a workaround (well you could use an ewo which sets up an event filter for the panel ...).

Panning the panel is already possible (see panningMode() ctrl function)

Thx Martin for the quick reply.

My preferred way would be the support of the mouse-wheel event directly from the UI, instead of a 'custom' EWO to create this behaviour.
This feature won't be available in the comming 3.13 release, is't?

I there someone who's missing this 'event' also?
