Description RaccoonGraphics 2023-11-26 11:05:45 UTC 
SUMMARY
So there is dedicated setting in plasma to enable grab scrolling with middle mouse which simulates kind of android behaviour, it works across most menus, but sadly it doesn't work in dolphin file manager, there press and hold middle mouse just selects same as left mouse button. I hope this kind of feature could be expanded to work everywhere, or in as much places as possible for consistancy, and making plasma more pen tablet friendly. Thank you for making KDE great again.
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols.
