Wichura) Newsgroups: comp.sys.amiga.introduction Subject: Scrolling 2.0 screens without AutoScroll on Message-ID: Date: 20 Apr 91 20:14:31 GMT Lines: 26 Ok, I've had my A3000 since they first started shipping. I have finally looked into using the virtual screen support, however. The idea being to have a screen twice as large in each direction to drag windows partially off screen (like on a Mac or under X). I turned off autoscroll because I don't see myself running around the screen a lot and it's anoying if I accidentally hit the mouse against a side. Anyway, I'm having trouble finding out how to manually scroll the screen. If I'm at the top of the screen, I can grab its drag bar and scroll anywhere I want with the mouse. But once I let go, if there's no drag bar, I can't seem to get back. Looking in the 2.0 preferences section, there is a thing in IControl about the key to be used in congunction with the mouse to scroll the screen. This sure sounds like what I'm looking for, but no amount of coersion seems to make it work. What's the scoop? I'm obviously missing something here. Thanks, -=> CAW (Looking through the manual, it seems to me the old icons for the window gadgets looked a lot nicer than the current stuff. I think that's been said here, already, though...)
