Bug ID: 503747
Summary: Janky middle mouse scroll functionality
Classification: I don't know
Product: kde
Version: unspecified
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
Reporter: honkanen.ap at gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Middle mouse scroll has overall a janky functionality which is in some
applications leads to unexpected behaviour. Particularly the slight delay
between the button press and beginning of the scrolling causes a user to
overexaggerate the mouse movement which leads to an uncontrolled amount of
scrolling initially. In most programs the delay makes it feel that the middle
mouse scrolling gets stuck.
SUGGESTION
To maintain the backwards compatible behaviour, add options to adjust the
initial delay and perhaps the scroll speed to System settings
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Check on "Press middle button and move mouse to scroll" under "System
settings" > "Mouse & Touchpad"
2. Press mouse middle button and scroll
OBSERVED RESULT
Middle mouse scrolling starts after a slight delay which is bothersome in most
applications
EXPECTED RESULT
Scrolling starts smoothly after the button press
