Two-finger pad scrolling

Post by ralexm »

Hi

I'm running OpenOffice 4.1.4, just upgraded from 4.1.3 on a new Windows 10 computer. I usually use a trackpad set up for two-finger scrolling, but it simply refuses to scroll on any OpenOffice programme. Absolutely nothing happens. I've tried using a scroll-wheel on a cheap usb mouse and that works fine, but nothing using the pad. If I have another window open next to it, even if OO is active and under the cursor, scrolling will move the other window.

Any ideas?

What about the other (third party) applications: are they work with that device? (For example: the non-windows related pure text editors, PDF reader softwares...)

Everything else works fine, Just not OpenOffice.

Had you tried it with the LibreOffice? ( The speed of the development is very different at the AOO and LO: maybe the LO can handle this Windows function today.)

I could give it a go. The thing is, the same version worked fine on my old computer with the same OS. Well, it was 4.1.3 but I had the same problem with 4.1.3 on the new computer too.
