Description Savor d'Isavano 2020-06-19 01:49:04 UTC 
SUMMARY

In wayland mode, scrolling is opposite in some apps than in other apps. For example,
with "Invert scroll direction (Natural scrolling)" disabled, Kate, Chromium, Dolphin (I only tested with those) work correctly, while System Settings left pane, latte dock panel settings work in the opposite direction. 

The issue occurs for both double-finger scrolling and edge scrolling.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the some apps mentioned above. 
2. Scroll the touchpad and note the behavior.
3. Go to System Settings -> Input Devices, tick/untick "Invert scroll direction (Natural scrolling)" checkbox.
4. Play with the touchpad again.

OBSERVED RESULT


EXPECTED RESULT
All applications honor the setting correctly.
