Will Nautilus scrolling bug be fixed for Pharo 3.0 release?
Occasionally, when I use my trackpad to scroll through my classes (the 2nd column in the Nautilus window), the package pane starts scrolling (1st column) even though the cursor has never moved outside of the left-and-right bounds of the 2nd column. I looked in read-only Pharo-issue tracker via Penelope http://bugs.pharo.org/ in the Cases for UI to see if someone had already reported this but found that the last post there was March 2013. Although I'm trying to learn enough to be able to contribute, I think fixing this is out of my reach for now. I inspected the Nautilus class but got stuck trying to see how mouseMoved events were sent and handled to the Nautilus window. Do you think this will be fixed for the Pharo 3.0 release? - Marco A.

Can you give an Case number? cheers -ben
Ben, I'm not sure what you mean. If you're asking if I know the case number of the bug I'm indicating, I do not. I don't know if a case exists for the bug I reported since the last post I was able to see in the "Cases for UI" in "Penelope, the Pharo issue tracker monkey" at "http://bugs.pharo.org/issues/register?_k=jDUak39jxWj3uNlf" is the titled the following way: 7557 Adding an entry to the World menu to clear all breakpoints 8 March 2013 2:24:58 pm - Marco A. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Will-Nautilus-scrolling-bug-be-fixed-for-Pharo-3-0-rel...

Ben, I created an account on https://pharo.fogbugz.com/ and discovered that the bug I experience is probably the following one: Case#5296 Fast Scroll Down produces weird events - Marco A. PS. I guess the read-only "Penelope, the Pharo issue tracker monkey" (http://bugs.pharo.org/) version isn't up-to-date. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Will-Nautilus-scrolling-bug-be-fixed-for-Pharo-3-0-rel...

Thats good that you've registered. In the sidebar there is a subscribe option you may be interested in. You should add a comment with how often it happens, how to reproduce and your environment including your OS, VM Build and Image Build which can be obtained from System > System Reporter. If you understand what "Fast Scrolling" is then a description or links describing it would be good since its not a term I am familiar with. Regarding your query about whether it will get into Pharo 3. I can't reproduce it. The issue is tagged Priority "6 - On hold" and Milestone "Later", the previous last comment was Aug 2013, and there are still a few higher priority items left to go, so in reality it currently will probably not be worked on. However I have left some notes on the ticket about how you might go about digging deeper. Once you have determined scancodes of interest you might wrap a condition around a /self haltOnce/ and then trace through subsequent steps. If you can turn up something interesting that can be actioned then you could modify Milestone=Pharo3.0 and Priority=4-Would-be-nice, and notify the mail list. good luck, cheers -ben
I can clearly reproduce it. You can get it on a Mac laptop almost constantly, and because of it I gave up using the trackpad for scrolling. Doru On Mon, Mar 31, 2014 at 6:07 PM, Ben Coman <btc@openinworld.com> wrote:
