edit: Since I'm not sure if I've change the parameter names, here's the prototype VstIntPtr MyPlug::vendorSpecific(VstInt32 index, VstIntPtr value, void* ptr, float opt); Well, all hosts... REAPER doesn't seem to support it. But indeed FL Studio and VSTHost do, so thanks for the info.  Well "all hosts" in the sense of "not really vendor specific". |

I found this, I now understand what you mean: http://www.asseca.com/vst-24-specs/efVendorSpecific.html Do we know which hosts do/don't support this? Here is my shortlist so far: Hosts that support effVendorSpecific mouse wheel
Hosts that don't
* In REAPER the plug-in window does seem to receive WM_MOUSEWHEEL messages without setting keyboard focus |

What I personally do is synthesize WM_MOUSEWHEEL messages upon receiving the effVendorSpecific mouse-wheels, so if a host such as Reaper instead sends WM_MOUSEWHEEL messages I won't notice any difference. 
But anyway, the situation kinda sucks. |

The reason for the funny numbers comes out better if you use the constants 'stCA' and 'Whee' instead. ---- "Until you spread your wings, you'll have no idea how far you can walk."  |
