            Bug ID: 449694
           Summary: Desktop Effects > Zoom > setting mouse tracking to
                    Push does not reflect intended behaviour
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: madhanrj at outlook.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Zoom's Mouse tracing does not respect my preference. I prefer "Push" but
changing the option has no effect and  mouse tracking still behaves as if it's
set to "Proportional".  

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Go to System Settings > Workspace Behavior > Desktop Effects > Zoom
2.  Change Mouse Tracking to Push > Apply
3.  Move the cursor around

OBSERVED RESULT
Mouse Tracking behaviour does not reflect the setting

Things to Note:
1. Changing the option to Push has no effect as mouse tracker behaves as if it
is set to propotional
2. I noticed that Mouse tracking works as inted on fresh start with an empty
desktop sesion. However, as soon as i launch  any application the behaviour
switches back to  propotional.
3. Zoom settings show the option is set to push despite the behaviour.
4. Zoom Does not work i.e. Cannot Zoom in  after switching to X11.

EXPECTED RESULT
When set to push the mouse cursor should be able to move within the focused
area without shifting focus. Focus should shift only when the mouse cursor
tries to move outside the focused area like it's pushing the focus to where its
needed.
