Tile Scrolling

I just got Zquest beta 182, and I tried to scroll down through the tile on the right side of the screen by pressing shift+pgup or dwn (like before) but it doesn't scroll down. How do you scroll through the tiles in beta 182?

Tiles, or the combo table? I believe you mean the combo table. If that's the case, shift+pg up/down should work. If not, try shift+up/down on the arrow keys.

Nope none of those work. Also, when I start ZC or Zquest the buttons (ex. File, Edit etc.) appear at the bottom instead of the top, pretty screwy.

EDIT: It works now, just needed a few tried I guess.

Congrats. 😉 Did you find the ZQuest "rule" to use the mouse to scroll? The keyboard commands, mentioned above, and the mouse work fine. I personally use the mouse (Trackball, actually, and refrain from comments on my precioussss .. trackball over mouse fixation. Heheh. :spin: ) to scroll around, but the keyboard works for individual operations.

Remember, you can hold in ctrl and alt to make your mouse-scrollings go faster. 😊 Ctrl+mouse movements go an entire combo page at a time, I believe. Be careful with it, as it can easily skip.

You can also click on the little boxes just to the left of the combo list in order to scroll through it one screen at a time. This isn't a very popular method, but I always use it.
