Okay, thank you for your answer, but there is one thing I am not sure I understand :
Let's say for example thant I want to create a rectangle on the screen and be able to move it up and down by pressing CTRL + up / down arrow and be able to rotate it with the mouse wheel. Does this mean that on Linux I just can't ? And does this mean that if I create an application able to react to mouse wheel, I need to code it differently for Windows and for Linux ?
