Factorio Forums

Minor issue:

I'm using a first-generation magic mouse in OS 10.10.5 (Yosemite).
When I come across a recipe that opens up a lot of new tech in which scrollbars show up in the technology tree, I can use the vertical swipe gesture to successfully scroll vertically. However, a horizontal scroll gesture will not scroll the window horizontally.

Thanks for the report.
Fixed in 0.17.15

Thanks for the efforts but horizontal scrolling still not working with Apple's Magic Mouse.

One possible explanation is that Factorio's horizontal scrolling speed is so slow that a horizontal scroll did not register or was not visible (we may have to increase it, it is *much* slower than vertical scroll). I just tried again with 0.17.15 and a Magic Mouse, and horizontal scrolling seems to be working. Would you mind giving it another look, and trying a really big scroll?

Ah yes. I see the scrolling now. I think what may have happened is the mouse lost its bluetooth connection just as I was testing. I just put some new batteries in the magic mouse and restarted Factorio 0.17.15 and it is indeed fixed. But yes, the scroll speed is very, very slow.
Apologies for the wild goose chase there.

Great, thank you!

On the contrary, rather than a goose chase, it's good positive confirmation the fix is real I've added myself a note to look at the scroll speed soon.
