Horizontal scrolling by using Shift+mouse scroll - scroll

I've been trying to find a way to scroll horizontally by using shift+mouse scroll (mouse scroll alone would of course only scroll vertically), in any Windows (XP) application. Can anyone suggest a simple way to do this? I tried the software AutoHotKey, but none of the scripts that were meant to do that worked for me.
Thanks!

Windows scrolling function distorts view

This isn't really related to coding or programming, but when I scroll in a Windows Application, such as Microsoft Word or Notepad++, the view becomes very distorted. Please refer to the preview below.

The problem has been occurring for several days now but was never an issue previously. It seems to occur in all text editors I use, seen in Microsoft Word in the above preview but also observed in Notepad++.
If someone has experienced similar issues or can advise me with this problem, I would be very grateful. System specs are as below.

Thanks in advance!
UPDATE: This seems to be an issue with my scrollpad. The problem does not occur if I scroll by dragging the scrollbar or if I scroll using a USB mouse with a scroll wheel. Any suggestions?

Detecting scrolling with a Magic Mouse using a CFCallback

Can I find out how much a Magic Mouse has scrolled by in a IOHIDDeviceRegisterInputValueCallback function?
I am trying to detect the scrolling gesture from a Magic Mouse using the CFCallbacks. I have it working fine with a standard USB mouse with a scroll wheel, but it seems that the Magic Mouse reports scrolling in a different way.
Thanks.
I ended up getting the scroll information from the window event in Cocoa instead. Not a full fix for this issue but I still was able to access the scroll message.

Magic Mouse scrolling stops working after horizontal scrolling

Occasionally when I scroll horizontally in an app using the magic mouse, the current tab or page I'm scrolling on freezes and thereon in that app, scrolling is completely non-functional.
For example, if I'm using Safari and I scroll horizontally to go back to the previous link, the current tab freezes, stuck in the middle of the animation. If I close the frozen tab, the other tabs work fine, but I can't scroll vertically or horizontally in them. I have to scroll using the scrollbar. No other apps are affected and if I restart the affected application, everything goes back to normal and the mouse scrolling is functional again.
Has anybody else had this issue? Any ideas on how to fix this?
I was running Lion when this issue started. I updated to Mavericks hoping it would be fixed, but no luck. I'm currently running Mavericks GM on an iMac (latest model).
This is an issue after installing Mavericks. Go to System Preferences/General and click on Show scroll bars: Check "Always". Hope this helps.

Hiding UITabbar when scrolling in iOS

Hi i am trying to replicate A UItabbar being hidden and showing while scrolling much like how the pinterest and google + apps do it. I found a quick emulation on git hub by tony million https://github.com/tonymillion/ExpandingView . it works great but theres a problem and its huge for me. if you rapidly scroll up and down you will see a white bar at the bottom while the tab bar is hidden. if you scroll normally everything works fine. but as a programmer i don't want to worry about that white space on the bottom showing up. I searched around and noticed others were getting the same problem. if theres anyway this can be fix i would greatly appreciate it. thank you.

Scrolling issues with SIP (keyboard) open on wp7

I am developing an application for WP7 platform (actually WP7.1 sdk). I have a page with an image and couple textboxes in a Grid encapsulated in scrollviwer, that supports both portrait and landscape orientation. I am facing some odd behaviors that rised my two questions:
Is there a solution or at least explanation why in Portrait mode when I focus on any textbox and SIP comes up I cannot scroll through the page in the rest of viewable area? When I try to scroll it with SIP up it always bounces back to the focused textbox so to select another textbox I have to tap elswere to hide the SIP and select another textbox. (its annoying and user unfriendly) In a landscape mode though, I can scroll through the page easily (without bouncing) and select whatever I want with SIP up. I think it has to do something with a fact that in portrait mode without sip you can see all elements and in landscape you have to scroll down to see some textboxes. But if I look into some system apps I see similar pages and it doesnt bounce to focused textbox with the keyboard up, so I dunno what am I doing wrong.
Is there any workaround to correctly position dropdown from autocompletebox control from toolkit while it is declared inside of scrollviewer? Its position is always messed up, most of the time I tried to solve this it showed up over the textbox itself hiding it.
Thanks for your time.
I already did some research but didnt solve anything :-/
Could you please try my solution ?

I would recommend you to read Alex's article on the subject. I think it should answer your problem just fine.
Not really. And you shouldn't have a AutoCompleteBox in a ScrollViewer.
