Description Markus Weimer 2002-04-14 17:59:01 UTC
(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           kdesktop
Version:           3.0.0 (using KDE 3.0.0 )
Severity:          wishlist
Installed from:    Unspecified
Compiler:          gcc 2.95.4
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: debian woody

In Windowmaker there is a feature to change virtual desktops using the scrollwheel of a wheelmouse while pointing to the background.

As the desktop background has currently no "scroll" feature it would be great if kde would have a similar feature.

Maybe one could extend this in kwin to a window behaviour like "scrollwhell when nothing is to be scrolled"
