It doesn't help diagnose your problem, but I'm on LWM6, and I can
scroll non-focused (and focused) editor panes using two fingers on a
trackpad as well as with the ball/wheel in an Apple mouse.  I don't
recall changing any preferences to get this, and I don't see any
relevant preferences in LW or in OS X.  Any other details about your
system setup?  //JT


Re: Re: scroll wheel in editor windows on LWM 6.0

Thanks for your answers!
I have tried LWM 6.0, 32-bit Intel on two different MacBook Pro models, both running Mac OS X 10.5..8. Using two different external logitech mouses. I haven't yet tried scrolling using the trackpad.
On both machines I cannot scroll the "Text" in editors, but I can scroll "Definitions" in editors!
I have tried without my initialization file and the results are the same.
The LW6.0 release notes mentions changes regarding scroll bar sizes - maybe something has happened there?
Anyone running LWM6.0 with Mac OS X 10.5.8 and has the scroll wheel working?
Any tips on what to investigate more?

Same here - I can scroll with trackpad and scroll-wheel in non focused panes and windows and even in non-focused panes and windows when LW is in the background (i.e., from other applications). LWM 6.0, 64-bit Intel, Mac OS X 10.6.2.

warmest regards,
