Description dan.j.allen 2012-11-12 22:52:30 CET 
When the test class is run and the mouse wheel is continuously turned slowly, a MouseEvent is continuously fired as expected. However, the output from calling the getWheelRotation() method always returns '0'.

When using AWT MouseEvent and the same hardware, again a MouseEvent is triggered continuously. However, the output from calling the getWheelRotation() method returns a '1' for approx 1 in 4 events (the other events being '0').

It appears the Newt MouseEvent is not carrying over the remainder from each event and therefore a '1' is never returned for slow movements of the wheel.

The mouse in use for this test is a Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 6000.

The test class is attached.
