Almost everything is in the title. I'm using PD7 on a MBA 2011 and the guest OS is ubuntu 11.04. When I'm two-fingers scrolling a text page, PD7 triggers right-clicks events. As a result, it often pops-up the context menu and selects one the menu items (e.g. copy/paste/erase) which leads to unwanted edits. This makes scrolling unsafe with the touchpad and an external mouse is not an option for me (working in the train). I coud not find a configuration menu to set the trigger sensitivity and/or change right-click behavior. I'd appreciate if someone could point me a solution to this. Regards, Quentin
Hey, You're right about java apps. My previous post was related to netbeans. Being curious, I tried scrolling in gedit and the problem did not show up. Might be a PD7/Java issue then?
Still no feedback from Parallel? PD is useless for me with this bug and I'm sure I'm not the only one that uses PD7 to host a VM for Java development... I'd appreciate an official feedback/comment. In 2 weeks from now, I will ask for a refund as PD7 is not functional as is.
Hello QLA, your issue need to be investigated by our technical support.

This is NOT a Parallels problem. The problem is in handling of horizontal scroll in NetBeans and other Java application. Any scroll-left event results in this reaction. The problem affects two finger scroll as small movement in horizontal direction always happens when you scroll down. You should either tune your guest to disable horizontal scroll or tune Java applications to properly handle horizontal scrolling or disable new mouse protocol in Parallels (effectively disabling horizontal scroll) setting tools.sm_ver=0 in boot flags.
