1-8 keyboard shortcuts for tabsAIR doesn’t support it natively in the current Beta, although I understand it will be there in the final. I’ve done a bit of research on Javascript handling mousewheel events, and it may be possible to write my own limited support for it. Not sure if I should wait for a new AIR release and hope it includes proper support, or do my own, though.
I’d really love to see this implemented. I hate apps without scroll wheel support.
I tested this out, and AIR doesn’t seem to receive the normal mouseWheel events that most web browsers do. It *might* be possible to get this working if I plug into the flash.ui events, but my previous attempts at that kind of thing didn’t work out well.
I’m pessimistic that this will happen before Adobe just fixes it in the runtime.

Quick question: Is scroll wheel support coming? Or do we have to chalk this one up to Adobe’s inability to support it?
Yours,
