Subject: Scrolling page up-page down with scroll bar does not work
Date: Mon, 08 Jul 2013 15:08:11 +0200

To reproduce:

$ emacs -Q &
C-x C-f A_LONG_TEXT_FILE

The scroll bar is on the right and it has an UP arrow and a DOWN arrow. 
Clicking with mouse-1 on these arrows, scrolls the buffer one line at 
time (up or down), and this is OK.

Now, clicking just above the DOWN arrow or just below the UP arrow 
should scroll the buffer a *page* at time (down or up), instead it only 
moves the scroll bar cursor.. :-(


Ciao,
Angelo.

Trunk r. 113304 GTK build on Cygwin (I will try it for the next bug 
report...)

I will try on GNU/Linux to see if this is Cygwin related...

Ciao,
  Angelo.

It seem a Cygwin issue. I can't reproduce it on Kubuntu.. Curiously, it 
works on Cygwin if I click with mouse-3 instead of mouse-1..

I wonder if this is related to same recent update. Indeed I can 
reproduce the issue also with old build, say last march..

That was 7 years ago.

Are you still seeing this on a modern version of Emacs, such as the
recently released version 27.1?
