The _MOUSEWHEEL function returns a positive or negative INTEGER value indicating mouse scroll events since the last read of _MOUSEINPUT.


Syntax

scrollAmount% = _MOUSEWHEEL


Description

  • Returns -1 when scrolling up and 1 when scrolling down with 0 indicating no movement since last read.
  • After an event has been read, the value resets to 0 automatically so cumulative position values must be added.
  • If no movement on the wheel has occurred since the last _MOUSEINPUT read, _MOUSEWHEEL returns 0.


Availability

  • Available for macOS since QB64-PE v3.13.0


Examples

Example 1
Reading the cumulative mouse wheel "clicks".
DO
    _LIMIT 50
    DO WHILE _MOUSEINPUT
        Scroll = Scroll + _MOUSEWHEEL
        LOCATE 10, 20: PRINT Scroll
    LOOP
LOOP UNTIL INKEY$ = CHR$(13) ' press Enter to quit

Example 2
A simple text scrolling routine using the mouse wheel value to read a text array.
You will need a text file that is large enough for this example.
DIM Array$(100)
LINE INPUT "Enter a file name with 100 or more lines of text: ", file$
OPEN file$ FOR INPUT AS #1
DO UNTIL EOF(1)
    inputcount = inputcount + 1
    LINE INPUT #1, Array$(inputcount)
    IF inputcount = 100 THEN EXIT DO
LOOP
FOR n = 1 TO 21: PRINT Array$(n): NEXT
CLOSE #1
DO
    DO WHILE _MOUSEINPUT
        IF row >= 0 THEN row = row + _MOUSEWHEEL ELSE row = 0 'prevent under scrolling
        IF row > inputcount - 20 THEN row = inputcount - 20 'prevent over scrolling
        IF prevrow <> row THEN 'look for a change in row value
            IF row > 0 AND row <= inputcount - 20 THEN
                CLS: LOCATE 2, 1
                FOR n = row TO row + 20
                    PRINT Array$(n)
                NEXT
            END IF
        END IF
        prevrow = row 'store previous row value
    LOOP
LOOP UNTIL INKEY$ > ""
