            Bug ID: 119976
           Summary: Allow scrolling with mouse wheel while LibreOffice
                    doesn't have focus
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.6.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium

Description:
Arranging multiple Windows next to each other is a common use case. However
LibreOffice doesn't allow to scroll while it doesn't have focus. Thus it's
required to first click into the LibreOffice window to make it active before
scrolling is possible.

Allowing scrolling while the window is inactive would improve usability for
those use case greatly.

Steps to Reproduce:
- Open LibreOffice and some other application (e.g. Firefox) next to each
other.
- Make the Window of the other application active by clicking in it
- Put the mouse over the LibreOffice Window and turn the mouse wheel.

Actual Results:
LibreOffice doesn't scroll

Expected Results:
LibreOffice should scroll


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
