[Bug 19667] New: Demo for Total Annihilation: mouse scrolling of screen unworkable.
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19667 Summary: Demo for Total Annihilation: mouse scrolling of screen unworkable. Product: Wine Version: 1.1.27 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: blocker Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: hughperkins(a)gmail.com Demo for Total Annihilation: mouse scrolling of screen unworkable. On screens that cannot run at 640x480 resolution, the demo of Total Annihilation has to run in a virtual desktop in order to run at all, otherwise it crashes. This is not I feel the bug. The issue targeted by this bug report is that it is unworkably hard to scroll around the game world by moving the mouse pointer to the edges of the window, since the mouse pointer has to be positioned *exactly* on the edge of the window, which is possible, but detracts from the gameplay experience to the point as to be unplayable. A possible solution to this issue (which is not really a bug, so much as a lack of a feature I feel), could be to make it possible to enforce in wincfg that the mouse is locked to a particular region of the window or screen, by default to the window itself. wincfg could provide the possibility to specify a keyboard shortcut to unlock the mouse when necessary, or simply, by alt-tabbing out of the window, the mouse could be unlocked. For an example of another environment that implements this, you could look for example at dosbox. If you run for example populous in dosbox in a window, it works perfectly I feel, by locking the mouse pointer to the window, and one can use ctrl-f10 to free it, which I feel is totally unintuitive, but I feel works fine. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

I'm not sure if this has ever been a bug. At least it looks like wine 1.1.27 already had the option to grab the mouse, and that works for virtual desktops too. I tried looking for when this feature was introduced but could not find. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
