I have problem with RibbonGallery: If items don't fit to visible area scroll does not work properly

1) Select any item in RibbonGallery and keep mouse cursor on gallery

2) Use mouse wheel

3) I expect gallery scrolled but ribbon changes active tab

When ribbons gallery is presented as popup scrolling doesn't make any effect.

Hi Marcin,

When you do the mouse wheel on the in-ribbon gallery for Styles in Word, it doesn't scroll either and also changes active tab.  So our functionality seems to match Office's in that regard.

Thank you for fast replay!

I checked it and Office really work in the same way. But in my opinion it is not proper behavior. Do you plan to introduce switch changing action for mouse wheel in future?

Hi Marcin,

Not at the moment, since we like to match Office behavior.  But you could probably add it yourself by inheriting RibbonGallery and watching for the mouse wheel event.  If you see it, send the RibbonGallery either a ScrollBar.LineUpCommand or ScrollBar.LineDownCommand as appropriate.  That should get it scrolling.
