STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open some settings window with elements that accept input by mouse wheel. 2. Scroll the window with the cursor in a position where later down a settings element will accidentally get under the mouse cursor. OBSERVED RESULT The contents of the settings element unwantedly change. EXPECTED RESULT The scrolling doesn't change the settings, only scrolls the window. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.87.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 Kernel Version: 5.14.16-arch1-1 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Settings change on scrolling is very easily triggered by accident, especially when scrolling the surrounding window. This leads to unwanted changes, often without noticing, which can be very annoying (see e.g. https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/9xgw29/disable_scrolling_as_dropdown_context/, https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/bn0ri1/disable_scrolling_into_dropdowns_and_spinners/, https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/9cbema/mouse_wheel_changes_sliders_and_drop_down_menus/, https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=111261). There should be an option to globally disable this feature, or at least some way of making sure it isn't triggered by accident, e.g. by accepting mouse wheel input only after the element has been clicked. 2076638 1 nate 2021-11-10 16:59:26 +0000 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 399324 ***
