Mouse wheel scrolls whatever is under the cursor

I'd like to be able to use the mouse wheel to scroll whatever is under the mouse pointer without having to click to activate and then scroll. Now, whatever tree or list has focus takes the mouse scrolling. I have a small utility running that let's your mouse scroll be passed to whatever your mouse pointer is over. It does not work either with FC.

thanks.

alf, it grows on you. I never wanted it either until some apps just started working that way. Now I miss it whenever it's not available. cheers.

My FC XE with custom settings works exactly like this (it is my preference, also) but I can't, for the life of me, remember what setting I changed!

Edit: I actually didn't change anything... this is the default bahavior. :)

oops, you're correct - mouse wheel scrolls whatever is unde the cursor.

I mixed it with the behavior of FastStoneViewer - the mouse cursor also steals keyboard focus and that's definitely not what I want.

The default behavior, hmm?

So now to figure out why mine doesn't behave.

Found it.

I have two panels set horizontally. Each panel has its own Tree display on the left side of the panel. If I click in either panel's file list the mouse wheel will scroll whatever the mouse pointer is over. So that panel's tree will scroll, and the other panels tree and file list will also scroll.

But if I click in either panel's Tree view, the mouse wheel will not scroll in that panel's file list or the other panel's tree or file list.

Can someone verify this? It's more a bug now than a feature request unless I've missed a setting somewhere which I hope is the case.

thanks.
