Yup, I'd like mouse wheel support by default too :)

Would you guys also rather have the scroll bar by default than the arrow buttons?

I definitely preferred the scrollbars (back when OmnomIRC had scrollbars).

I prefer scrollbar and mouse wheel by default. It's kinda awkward how it works in the userlist but not the chat log. XD

OmnomIRC used to support mousewheel, but Netham45 had to remove it in extremis because it annoyed the shit out of most members when they tried to scroll down through the page. OmnomIRC scrolling would override page scrolling so people were unable to scroll up or down unless they hovered elsewhere. Of course, back then it was worse because when Omnom loaded, it was at the top of the chat rather than the bottom but even if it starts at the bottom it would still be annoying when scrolling back up.


I would say make it an option. Don't make it default. Else, if an option is impossible, just stick to the arrows we have right now. >.<

^This

Also another problem: The option link is too close to the rest so it kinda looks weird. Full view is on two lines.

See attachment. It looks like Full and View are separate links due to the layout and due to being in two line it makes the overall links list look weird (I use 1920x1080 resolution + Opera 12.16 by the way. I have the same problem in Firefox, except that the first links are aligned with the online list):

That only happens if you start mousewheeling when your cursor is in the OmnomIRC box.

Otherwise the page should scroll normally.

YEah but that's what I mean. Since OmnomIRC is so large in height and width, it always got in the way. It was particularly bad. Of course you and Sorunome joined way after Netham45 scrapped the scrollbars, though, so you didn't have the chance to witness it.

* Sorunome lost

also, in my browser it isn't like that x.x
* Sorunome starts up opera

Actually in my case (even after clearing cookies/cache) it only looks fine in IE... O.O


EDIT: Lol I just noticed there are actual scrollbars if you enable them now, but in your case it's not as bad as in 2010 because you use custom ones rather than default Windows ones. Only one problem that was mentionned before, though: You have to keep your cursor perfectly aligned while scrolling, else it stops then highlights text instead.

Ok, fixed the mouse on scrollbar bug, silly me, not knowing how scrollbars work XD

Also, added a poll about if the scroll bars should be enabled by default

Well it works now but if you get your cursor out of OmnomIRC, you get the same issue. :P
