compiz - Jul 2006 - roll wheel on desktop to switch viewport

Hi. After some time using Quinn's Compiz I returned to Vanilla, which is
more stable to me. There's a feature I do miss from Quinn's package,
though, and it's the ability to change viewports by rolling the mouse
wheel over the desktop.

Would it be possible to mimic that behavior in Vanilla? Thanks in
advance.

Not really. What you can do is set up button bindings to change viewport
with the mouse wheel buttons. You probably want to use some modifier
keys for this though, e.g. have <ctrl><alt>button4 switch to next
viewport and <ctrl><alt>button5 to the previous one.
