Netscroll's roulette should be change selected tab when the pointer is on left or right tab.
Comment 1 Peter Penz 2008-02-01 09:45:30 UTC 
Could you please describe what you mean with "tab"? Do you mean the left and right view after doing a "split view"? If 'yes' this request would interfer with using the   mousewheel (= netscroll?) to scroll within a view itself...

Petition mockup for the bugs #157067 and #157068

This is a mockup of my two feature requests for Dolphin (for this bug and for
the bug #157067: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=157067)
Comment 3 Peter Penz 2008-02-05 12:24:54 UTC 
Thanks for the mockup! I've set #157067 to the state "NEW" as "wishlist" item. For this bug report (#157068), the feature cannot be implemented as the scrollwheel is already assigned for scrolling within the items of a view (e. g. please try to use the wheel for in views with a lot of items).
Comment 4 usrrgt 2008-02-05 12:31:09 UTC 
OK, It is true.
Would it be possible to do it in Dolphin's URL bars?

> Would it be possible to do it in Dolphin's URL bars?

Technically yes, but I don't see the need for this: where is the benefit to put the mouse over the (quite small) URL bar and use the (tricky) scrollwheel when instead just a mouseclick on the unfocused view is enough?

I think that is more more comfortable usr mousewheel instead to do click with the mouse.
It is only my opinion. Perhaps it is because I am customary to change in the same way between tabs in Konqueror.

A greeting and thank you anyway. : -)
