int rdp_mouse_wheel( "StepDescription=<step_description>", "Snapshot=<snapshot>", ["ConnectionID=<connection_identifier>",] "MouseX=<x_pos>", "MouseY=<y_pos>", "WheelDirection=<Up|Down>", "WheelUnits=<num_units>", "KeyModifier=<key_modifier>", "Origin=<Recorded|Synched|Default>", RDP_LAST );

This function returns LR_PASS (0) on success or LR_FAIL (1) on failure. Note that LR_PASS and LR_FAIL generally indicate whether the function call completed without an exception, and not that the test step succeeded.

All string arguments (char type) can be parameterized using standard parameterization.

Argument | Description
--- | ---
StepDescription | A descriptive, unique name for this step. Use any text.
Snapshot | The name of the snapshot file of the screen state before this step.
ConnectionID | The name of the connection on which this function operates. Do not change the recorded ID. If several connections are open and the ID is not specified, the first connection in the script is used. If only one connection is open, the connection ID is not required.
MouseX | The horizontal distance of the mouse from the left edge of the active window.
MouseY | The vertical distance of the mouse from the top edge of the active window.
WheelDirection | The turn direction.
