   In MS #Office you can quickly switch between ribbon tabs with your mousewheel. 🖱️

   In
   @libreoffice
   you can't. 🤬 Users have wanted this since at least 9 years ago.¹

   ☝️ Today I managed to hack together a really dirty little #AutoHotkey/#AHK_X11 script for Windows and GNU/Linux that makes this possible! 🥳 🍾🥂

   You can find it here:

   Hope it helps someone!

     @metaphil Thanks! We'd love to have it too, but as you know, we've a volunteer-driven project with very limited resources. We can only add ne features if people step up to help, or fund developers: https://www.documentfoundation.org/certified-developers/ – So if someone could fund a developer to implement it, that would be awesome 😊

     @libreoffice I'd still prefer this to be implemented in #LibreOffice directly, but I have no idea how to revitalize such a zombie issue and get traction to it as an outsider.

     If you know somebody who could: 🙏

     @metaphil Thanks for offering to support us 😊 There's also credit/debit-card donations. We don't support any particular crowdfunding platform, but you can also approach certified developers and see what it would take, to implement the new feature: https://www.documentfoundation.org/certified-developers/ – Thanks again!

     @libreoffice *digs in his @Liberapay pockets* Dammit, only paypal availabe for TDF. Will have to set-up a SEPA standing order again. *adds to to-do list*
     According to https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Crowdfunding there is no way to set-up bug bounties or similar, right?
