[OpenLayers-Users] Panning button in the editing toolbar re-enables zoom via scroll wheel

[Christopher Dale]

Good news,

Figured out how to at least get the navigation control in the editing
toolbar to not allow zooming via the scroll wheel until the zooming
gets fixed. After adding your Navigation control to the map, drop this
in:

var controls = map.getControlsByClass('OpenLayers.Control.Navigation');
for(var i = 0; i < controls.length; ++i)
      controls[i].disableZoomWheel();

That'll take care of telling all other navigation controls not to
allow zooming with the scroll wheel.

Thanks to this site for steering me in the right direction:

Can we add a bug report for the zooming stuff though? That seems like
it might be a big issue.

Thanks everyone,

Chrelad
