           Summary: Okular in RTL language (Arabic) moves opposite
                    direction horizontal scroll bar using mouse
    Classification: Applications
           Product: okular
      Version First 25.04.1
       Reported In:

SUMMARY

When using Okular in RTL language (Arabic), the horizontal scroll bar moves in
the opposite direction when you use the mouse to click and hold on the scroll
bar and move it to right or left, it should inherit the same way it operates as
in LTR (default). Btw, it has no effect on the document language you open, all
documents are the same and the issue affects them equally.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open okular
2. set language to RTL (like arabic)
3. zoom in so that horizontal scroll bar appears
4. click and hold on the scroll bar using the mouse and move it to the right or
left

OBSERVED RESULT

it moves in the opposite direction

EXPECTED RESULT

moves along the same direction as it would in LTR
