The Sidebery settings FlexFox ships turn this off. In Sidebery/sidebery-settings.json, scrollThroughTabs is none. That is the wheel switch. scrollThroughTabsExceptOverflow is also true, so even after you turn scrolling on, the wheel only changes tabs when the list is longer than the panel. In Sidebery, open settings, then Mouse, and set scroll through tabs to the panel instead of none. If you only have a few tabs, also turn off the option that skips this unless the list overflows. FlexFox hides the sidebar until you hover it. Scroll while the sidebar is open. If the wheel hits the page, it will not change tabs. Reinstalling the FlexFox settings puts scrollThroughTabs back to none. |
