When I scroll with the mouse wheel it is very jerky. Sometimes nothing happens, other times it works properly. I tried compiling vim from its upstream github, and it works properly at all times, so this is not a hardware error with my mouse. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a file with gvim 2. Use the mouse wheel to scroll around 3. Actual Results: As described above - the wheel acts intermittent. Expected Results: Smooth scrolling. The version in Fedora 39 is version 9.1.76 and exhibits the problem. The version I built from upstream is version 9.1.111 and it scrolls properly.
Hi Steven, thank you for reporting the issue! I have the same Fedora version+Vim version and I don't see any issues - when I scroll with mouse wheel, the code moves up and down, according the way I scroll the wheel. I don't see anything suspicious. Can you describe the misbehavior in more detail, or attach some video where you scroll in GVim and the issue is shown? Either way, I'll build new Vim version today, so you can try the latest upstream as well, as you tried building directly from upstream sources.
There is a new Vim update - https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2024-260a50dea7 - can you test the attached build and tell me whether it helps you?
This build resolves the scrolling issue that I was having in F39. Thanks for such a speedy fix! I'll attach a video of the bad behavior. I was trying to scroll continuously, but as you will see, the scrolling stops and starts. Doesn't really matter though - your latest build works perfectly.
