Description Istvan Ballok CLA 2011-02-17 07:38:06 EST 
Currently, the selection of the TabFolder is changed when mouse wheel events happen above it, independent of the focused control.
This behaviour is not consistent with the behaviour of the CTabFolder and currently, this can not be deactivated/changed through the API.
It is disturbing when a form is scrolled, that contains embedded tabfolders. -> if the mouse happens to get above a tabfolder, then instead of scrolling the form, the selection of the tabfolder is changed.

Solution:
I think this is a hidden feature that is not really needed. It comes with the qooxdoo implementation of the TabFolder widget, and could be removed by not registering the mousewheel event listener in qx.ui.pageview.AbstractBar.

Yes, that's true. Mouse-wheel related stuff has been removed from qx.ui.pageview.AbstractBar. Fixed in CVS HEAD.
