Problem description: This only effects Writer. Calc works without issue. I have enabled autsoscroll in options, and I cannot middle click to autoscroll. Other applications in the LO suite and other applications like Firefox work without issue. I'm on Ubuntu 13.10, using the supplied builds from https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ppa to run into this issue. It would also be helpful if people using 4.2 on Windows and those using official Linux builds from the LO website tested this. To see if the issue is specific to Ubuntu or Linux, or if it affects every platform. Steps to reproduce: 1. Enable autoscroll via Tools > Options > LibreOffice > View > Mouse, and set Middle Mouse button to "Automatic Scrolling" 2. Click OK. 3. Try middle clicking on a document in Writer and see if autoscroll works. In my case it doesn't. Current behavior: Expected behavior: Operating System: Ubuntu Version: 4.2.0.4 release Last worked in: 4.1.4.2 release
Sorry. Forgot to add the last two fields: Current behavior: Autoscroll wheel does not appear nor does autoscrolling work. Expected behavior: It should appear and work.
Reproducible with dev version 4.2.3.0.0+ and with version 4.1.5 under Linux / Ubuntu 13.10 x86-64 It works as expected in version 4.0.6, so set regression keyword. Best regards. JBF

so commit 5141201fba2d080841b81e02be92f4b47aae2684 fixed the crash... problem is that "m_pEditWin->HandleScrollCommand" is no longer called, and that handles the AutoScroll mode... i'd like to move that line up to the "early return" but actually in the case where we have a COMMAND_WHEEL_SCROLL that is not a SAL_WHEELMOUSE_EVENT_PAGESCROLL we need to call that as well ... so i had to revert that patch even though it seemed quite nice :-/

It's fixed alright. On bothh my Ubuntu installs. Thanks for being so prompt to resolve my issue, community! I'll think about that next time I'm donating. (-:
I believe this bug is back. I just updated to 4.2.5.2 yesterday and immediately my center mouse scroll wheel stopped working. My platform is Windows 7 and I only see this problem in libreOffice Writer.
tkman26, please file a *new* bug for this. i've just checked on Linux and middle mouse button AutoScroll is working fine on current master, libreoffice-4-3 and libreoffice-4-2 branches; the original bug definitely affected Linux so whatever you are seeing must be a different bug and needs to be triaged by QA.
