Mouse scroll button support in CVI

Is there a way to get mouse scroll button support in CVI?  Am I missing the obvious?  It's not part of the extended mouse events group as I would have though it would be.

The mouse scroll button is an important part of most Windows GUI's in the last many years, I've always been curious why we don't seem to have support for it in CVI.

Thanks for any info on this.

Hello Bob,

Unfortunately, there are no CVI callbacks to capture mouse wheel events. If you'd like, you can create a product suggestion for this feature by going to www.ni.com and navigating to Contact NI and feedback.
However, you can capture Windows messages (WM_MOUSEWHEEL) as described in the following thread: How can I use a wheel mouse in CVI.

Good luck and best regards,
