Is there a way to not have it fade to the top, just fade out?
Is there a way to just have it show "wheel up or down" once instead of multiples? I added wheelup/down to other

I get an error on line 36 that "* " is not a valid key name.

I get the same error

@javiavid I haven't used this script myself for several years, but https://stackoverflow.com/a/53208055/1176601 sounds related to the error message... (if you figure out what is the correct new syntax for line 36, I can update it for people who get here in the future)

Thanks
