I'm using Unity in Ubuntu 14.04, but since I can't put the Unity dock on the bottom of the screen, I've set it to hide and set the sensitivity low enough that my mouse can't activate it and slide it out. In place of the Unity dock, I now use the Cairo-Dock, but the Cairo-Dock changes apps if the scroll wheel is bumped.

There's no way that I can find to disable the scroll wheel app switching, so I'd like to know if there is a way to bind the scroll wheel to a system shortcut only when the mouse is over the Cairo-Dock.

I've already bound ctrl + scroll-wheel to /bin/true system wide to disable zooming in every app using .xbindkeysrc, but I don't know if there's a way to set things like this up on a per application basis.

Does anyone know definitively if this is possible?

I'm using Unity with Ubuntu 14.04, and there's no manual refresh button for wifi networks that I can find. So when I click on the wifi icon in the upper right, I just have to wait for it to get around to showing me new networks (this is most frustrating when I've just turned on my 4g hot spot). Sometimes I have to wait 15+ seconds to see my hotspot even though my phone and tablet can already see it (so I know the network is available well before Ubuntu sees it).

Is there any way to get a "refresh" option added to the wifi options in the network drop down list, or to decrease the time between scans for open networks?

Does anyone know of a way to disable application switching when the scroll wheel gets bumped while the mouse is hovering over the Cairo Dock?

I don't see any options for this in the settings, but it's a fairly annoying "feature" that I'm hoping someone else has found a way to turn off.
