mouse scroll wheel support?

Solar2D macOS Desktop

It was mentioned in **https://forums.coronalabs.com/topic/65758-from-the-blog-what-have-corona’s-engineers-accomplished-lately/ **that it’s now possible to use the mouse scroll wheel with widgets, but no widgets seem to register scroll wheel input (even with a newer Build: 2016.2995)

It also mentions here https://docs.coronalabs.com/api/event/axis/index.html that you can detect scroll wheel input, but using Runtime:addEventListener(“axis”, onAxisEvent) doesn’t even register any mouse input.

If using the Runtime:addEventListener( “mouse”, onMouserEvent) it does register when scrolling the mouse wheel but there is no mention of scroll wheels in the mouse documentation.

So I’m just wondering if mouse scroll wheel input has actually been added or not? If yes, how to access it.

After searching further appears it may only be functioning for windows desktop. However you can get mouse scroll input using unofficial unsupported code below:

system.activate(“mouse”) – seems don’t even need this as it works without using this too

local function onMouseEvent( event )

     print("event.scrollY "…event.scrollY)
    --event.scrollY wil be either positive or negative value depending on direction of scroll but is not very stable

_    --we are using it for zoom in/out of a map and simply check for value <0 or >0
**end

Runtime:addEventListener( “mouse”, onMouseEvent )**_
