[Obsolete] Handbrake on KDE doesn't use the scroll wheel of the mouse

With handbrake in KDE the scroll wheel of the mouse doesn't work. Everytime I use the open file dialog I have to scroll either via the scrollbar or the keyboard to scroll down to the file I want to choose.

I realised that this is also true for steam and some other dialog boxes using zenity (that's what it says in the title-bar). But I don't find any way to handle this problem or change this behaviour ... the wiki and the forums even Google show no results when searching ...


Any ideas?

thx for reading,
piedro

Re: [Obsolete] Handbrake on KDE doesn't use the scroll wheel of the mouse

Obviously handbrake as firefox and some other applications do not use the Dolphin filemanager dialogs but some other filemanager. Since it has no branding I don't know what it is...

Which brings me to the broader question: How to force ALL applications to use the Dolphin dialogs for searching and picking files?

thx for any help,
p.

You can checkout the following:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Un … plications

It integrates KDE file dialogs into GTK applications. Last time I tried though, it did not work very well (many crashes).

Re: [Obsolete] Handbrake on KDE doesn't use the scroll wheel of the mouse

thx for your hint.

But I'd rather stay away from this one... It doesn't make much sense to rewrite all the start links with a wrapper and still it doesn't work for the most prominent of programs like chrome, thunderbird, firefox... last update 2011, well, go figure...

thx anyway, I seem to be the only one who is bothered by this...

Must have been a bug and it's fixed...
So I mark this as obsolete...

thx, piedro
