Wheelmouse and Configuring Templates #243

Description

install a wheelmouse

Install CardView in Gramps 5.2
Configure the People category's Person Card
use the "edit template"
select the "Active" tab
Use the mousewheel to scroll the Person template to see all the options
it works as expected so long as the pointer is over blank space
However, if the pointer passes over a pop-up menu, then the menu selections scroll instead.
(it happens so quickly that you might not note which was the initial value. So to return that value to defaults may require using the "Defaults" button and resetting EVERYTHING.)

Worse.... if you continue to scroll down Primary Fact Group's Field 1: pop-up menu and bounce off the bottom, then a "Select Person" dialog is spawned. This seems to be unique to most of the pop-up menus in the Active tab's Person.

Can the Wheel Mouse be made to NOT affect menu selections for a RollOver? Only change selections when the menu has been selected?
