Bug: Mouse scroll wheel turns A axis

[mrandt]

Funny bug: As my vertical screen resolution is too low, I often use the scroll wheel on the mouse to scroll main window.

When I do this, I noticed that A axis is turning at the same time.

I suppose this is a bug, not a feature? ;-)

It is a feature (A axis jog). The bug is not to see if you are trying to scroll the view or fine-tune A position.

Ok. It is not very obvious; I would personally have expected scroll wheel would control Z-axis if there was mouse control for machine at all :-)

Until there is a way to reliably get all UI events before any of the Windows controls*, there will be no Z axis keyboard jogging, other than F keys. Far too easy to crash the needle.

(*: There isn’t (boooo @ms!), some controls have privilege.)

I get that. F-keys work fine for me so no need to mess with other keyboard combinations.

How can I turn off the mouse wheel spinning A axis? I cannot control my habbit of scrolling the main window with that wheel... ;-)

On a side note: I also often used the numpad to enter values in text input fields and where suprised when my machine suddenly moved.

Is it possible to not capture key press events if a input field has focus? Otherwise I would like an option to disable num pad jogging :-P

If there is, I don’t know how (unless doing if focus on this control or focus on that control or ..., which I’m not going to do).

This should be easy.

Added options to disable both mouse and numpad jogging. Further, I found how to disable jogging if focus is on input field.
