--------------------------

             Summary: Scrollbar mouse wheel don't work in Safari 7 and Mac OSX 10.9
                 Key: FLEX-34461
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-34461
             Project: Apache Flex
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Spark: ScrollBar
    Affects Versions: Apache Flex 4.12.0
         Environment: Safari 7.0.5, OSX 10.9.4, SDK 4.12
            Reporter: gkk


I recently upgraded to Max OSX 10.9 (Mavericks) that includes Safari 7 and observed scrollbar mouse wheel movements don't have any effect on the scrollbar. Previously I used Mac OSX 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and Safari 5 and things worked fine.

To test, simply use Safari 7 with any Flex application that includes a spark scrollbar. Try moving the scroller using the mouse wheel. Nothing happens. Now test the same application in Chrome or Firefox, and things work as expected. 

I'll include a sample application below that includes a spark scrollbar, but any application with a scrollbar should work similarly. 

Here's an example Flex app you can access online:

I found this bug case:

https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3302758

posted years ago. I thought someone would have found a workaround by now, but I posted on a question of the Flex User Forum and didn't receive any feedback, which makes me wonder how developers address Safari in their applications. Do they just tell their customers the app doesn't work with Safari 6 and above? Or, is there a workaround? Is there any update in the status of this bug in the last couple years? If anyone has experience with this, please enter a comment. 

I tested Flash Player 12 debug and the latest Flash Player 14 non-debug and both behave similarly.

I haven't tested MX scrollbar, but suspect it may also have this bug.
