Description Martin Höher 2014-09-19 09:41:18 UTC
I am using "natural scrolling", i.e. I used the following command to configure my trackpad:

synclient VertScrollDelta=-29 HorizScrollDelta=-29

This seems to work as expected everywhere but in Kickoff. There, the scroll direction still seems to be in the "traditional way".

This is what I already tried:
* revert VertScrollDelta to positive values - this showed no effect in Kickoff
* in addition, I tried to change the scroll direction for Mouse input - also no effect on Kickoff

I am using plasmashell 5.0.1 on Fedora 20 installed from Copr (https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/dvratil/plasma-5/).

I just had a play, it seems all Qt5 apps that were already open don't update.
Can you confirm restarting plasmashell fixes it?
Comment 2 Martin Höher 2014-09-29 15:34:59 UTC
Restarting did not help (I tried everything including even restarting the complete system to ensure this behavior is "persistent" before filing the bug). Furthermore, I did not notice any other Qt5 app to behave similarly.

However, there's good news: I updated to Frameworks 5.2.0 (from Fedora's Copr repositories) and apparently this fixed the issue. :) Natural scolling seems to work fine now, so I guess this one can be closed (unless somebody else sees the same issue still).
