Scrollwheel input actions are not intercepted unlike other actions
Ouput from sudo pkill -f input-remapper && input-remapper-gtk -d while problem is being reproduced: https://pastebin.com/zTBS1esZ
That is the full output. Relevant snippet is at the bottom of this post.
The issue:
I have button 6 on my mouse (called "btn_BACK" by remapper) plus scrollwheel bound to volume control adjustment.
And it works! But it also causes the page to scroll.
Other remaps swallow the action, but for some reason not the scrollwheel - it keeps going right through.

Sorry I missed this notification I'll give those a shot.
#607 worked for me. Was a bit tricky since I had to go into "advanced" to make side+hires, and I'm confused why there's also a hires on my left/right but that doesn't seem to matter, but it works great, thanks.
