there is a couple of events:

on "MouseWheelUp" and on "MouseWheelDown" which tracks the motion accordingly. You can attach them for example to your responsebox window.

thanks for the events.

i found the button prev and next in responses.def but there are no scripts attached to them.
So where exactly is defined what these buttons are doing ?

Nowhere, it's handled by the engine automatically.
You can press them programatically, though, something like this (in window's script):

var DownButton = this.GetControl("down");
DownButton.Press();

so i have added a script "responses" to the response box window:

#include "scripts\base.inc"

var DownButton = this.GetControl("prev");
var UpButton = this.GetControl("next");

on "MouseWheelUp"
   {
   DownButton.Press();
   }
   
on "MouseWheelDown"
   {
   UpButton.Press();
   }

but it just does not work ...

You might need to handle the mouse wheel events in game.script, and redirect them to the response window.
I'm thinking something like this:

Code: WME Script
  1. on "MouseWheelUp"
  2. {
  3.   var RespWin = Game.GetResponsesWindow();
  4.   if(RespWin != null && RespWin.Visible) RespWin.ApplyEvent("MouseWheelUp");
  5. }
  6.  

Untested, but it might actually work ;)

yes you are right it actually works !  O0 ::rock O0

the only thing that worrys me a little bit is when my response window is active ( 5 responses in a .ttf-font ) my framerate sinks from 200 to 150 .. should this be ?

and have you read my dialogue problem ?

i have a dialogue

first function "dialog1" calls the function "dialog2".
if i break the loop in function "dialog2" i get back to function "dialog1".
but how can i close the complete dialogue from function "dialogue2" ?

Simply make your nested "dialog2" function return a logical value. dialog1 will check the return value of dialog2, and if it's true, it will end the main dialogue loop.
