IE8 Mouse Wheel scrolling inside grid

[zbradyParticipant]

When using IE8 and the mouse is inside the grid, the mouse-wheel does not scroll the browser scroll bar. I do not have scroll bars on the grid, only scroll bars for the page. As soon as the mouse is hovered over the grid I can no longer continue scrolling my page with the mouse wheel. I have to move outside the grid area to continue scrolling the page. Is this a known issue or is there a way to enable mouse wheel scrolling?

Hi zbrady,

jqxGrid handles the mouse-wheel when the Grid is on Focus. If you wish, you can disable that. To learn how, see: http://jsfiddle.net/jqwidgets/QLt6b/

Not the grid scroll bars, the scroll bars on the browser. When the mouse pointer is inside the grid area, the mouse wheel does not scroll the browser scroll bar. This only happens in IE8.

Hi zbrady,

Please, look at my previous post. If you want to disable the Grid’s mouse-wheel handling, disable the enablemousewheel property. By default, it is true.

I have the same problem, mouse-wheel does not work when mouse inside the Grid in IE8 (but works in Chrome), so I have to disable the mouse-wheel handling, and let the autoheight=true, but click event not handle correctly when Grid is higher than the container. see my post here:
(http://www.jqwidgets.com/community/topic/jqxgrid-auto-jump-to-top-when-click-if-table-is-higher-than-the-container/)

Currently, I removed click event handling in jqxGrid and I can click link in the cell freely, but I lost the function of selecting and editing.

Hi gwjwin,

We will check the mouse wheel scrolling. However, I suggest you to do not do any modifications in jqxGrid as that is prohibited by the EULA which you accepted when you downloaded the product!

Hi Peter,

Sorry for modified your code, I didn’t think much and just hoping I can help others if they have the same problem.

At least we found where goes wrong, and hope we can see this bug fixed in the next version.

Excellent. Thank you for the work around. Changing the enablemousewheel to false with autoheight true, lets you scroll in IE8.
