Hi I'm sure most people have encountered this problem at some point, you are scrolling a window which contains spinboxes or comboboxes and you accidentally change a value or setting. I find Glade especially bad in this respect.
In my own application I tried blocking the scroll-events from the comboboxes and while this does solve the problem, it removes a nice usability feature. It occurred to me that scrolling on a combobox requires that you point to it first, ie a pointer motion, so in an enter-notify callback I block scrolling but a pointer-motion callback enables it again. This works surprising well, you can whiz up and down and the cursor just passes over the comboboxes without them changing values but if you stop and scroll on a combobox it changes. Any thoughts? BTW, I had to use an event box to get the events for the combobox, is this correct or should I have been able to get them directly from the combobox?
