yep q's I know how to scroll downwards however its gets VERY annoying, anyone who has a wheely mouse knows what I am talking about. Any prog that doesn't feature it becomes annoying to use, I am not saying im going to stop using limewire (b/c im not) but it would very nice if it would, and I know it can't as I have read the previous topics on this. And i understand that you can't just trun that [deleted] thing off or on, all im saying is that its a shame Last edited by TruStarwarrior; September 26th, 2001 at 02:45 PM. |

theory regarding lack of mousewheel scrolling. As some of you may know, Limewire is written in the Java programming language. Up until version 1.4 of the Java platform, wich is still in beta, the ability to utilize the mousewheel is not present using pure Java. Limewire is based on version 1.1.8 of the Java platform, in order to ensure compatibility with a wide range of systems for wich the newest version of the Java platform may not be available. If a mousewheel feature was to be implemented, it would require writing a native library (for each platform), and integrate it into the Java application using JNI. This is not impossible, in fact that is how the taskbar icon we Windows-users see has been implemented. Maybe they will take the time required to do this, but it is more likely that they will focus their attention at the core functionality, rather than on a secondary feature that is not directly related the file-sharing problematics. /Tom Andresen (I'm in no way associated with Limewire, and what you have read is just my personal theory.) |
