Description Maciej Pilichowski 2006-11-05 11:22:00 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

It should be configurable, I mean the user should be able to turn this off. I changed the mouse with MMB and as far as I can tell this hardcoded "feature" is a killer for handicapped people.
Also for mouses where you have wheel and very sensitive trigger so I consider this report as a bug, not wish, because of this "feature" it is really hard to use Konq.

Since when does clicking the middle mouse button scroll the page? Not here.

Comment 2 Maciej Pilichowski 2006-11-05 16:04:08 UTC

Well, it does not scroll per se -- it turns the K.mode to scrolling (you can tell by mouse cursor -- two arrows). Then, moving the mouse scrolls the page.

Comment 3 Bram Schoenmakers 2006-11-05 16:14:53 UTC

You can turn it off (but only replace it by some other behaviour): Konqueror Settings -> Web Behaviour -> Select middle option in the Mouse section.

Comment 4 Maciej Pilichowski 2006-11-05 16:17:48 UTC

Where? I see only one option for MMB and this is opening selected links. It has nothing to do with scroll. KDE 3.5.5. What version do you use?

Comment 5 Bram Schoenmakers 2006-11-05 16:32:23 UTC

Yes, if you enable that, the annoying scroll feature disappears.

Comment 6 Maciej Pilichowski 2006-11-05 16:38:49 UTC

Ok :-) But it is solving problem by introducing another one. I would like to turn it off at all since I don't have button really but wheel. Which I would like to use only for scrolling.

So, I reopened the report. I rephrase -- please add ability to turn off MMB clicks. Reason: above.
