Thanks for your patch. I'm not too fond of the Tom On 07/07/2011 03:31 PM, kellym wrote:

I agree with you, my patch is probably more of a quick fix than anything. I had tried to do some research on working with raw events since that had been my original intention, but being a web developer without a whole lot of software dev experience, I don't yet have the knowledge of dealing with those sorts of things. I'm looking forward to seeing how you solve it. Thanks! kelly |

Kelly, I've pushed this code to git now, in case you want to check it out. Thanks, On 07/28/2011 11:20 AM, kellym wrote:

Much better looking than my attempt. Thanks for the work on this project, I appreciate it. Thanks, kelly |
The scrolling feature was limited to the current screen, and so any serious long-page scrolling came to a halt pretty quickly. Also, when you released the scroll button, the mouse would move to a new location, even if it was set to return to the original position.
I fixed it by moving the cursor to the middle of the screen and resetting the cursor to the middle whenever it neared the screen edge. In addition, I added the code to reset the cursor to its original position.
Let me know what you think-- I'd at least like to get the fix updated on some level in the ubuntu repos. Thanks!
