Comment 6 for bug 167191

Forgot to explicitly mention the reason for reopening this bug:
Issue as originally reported ("Shift + Scroll doesn't do anything.") reproduced with Inkscape 0.47 and 0.47+devel r9506 on OS X 10.5.8 with X11/Xquartz 2.4.0: horizontal scrolling of the _canvas_ using <Shift>+mouse scroll wheel fails. Other widgets in Inkscape do support horizontal scrolling as expected (palette, preferences).

Workarounds if supported by the hardware:
- tilt the mouse wheel left/right
- scroll with trackpad gestures (two-finger-drag horizontally)

Alternatively use conventional scrolling by either dragging the scrollbar slider with the mouse or scrolling the mouse wheel while hovering over the horizontal scrollbar.
