Using the mouse wheel to scroll through desktop widgets that have a scroll bar, such as the Application Launcher, Add Widgets dialogue or Network Manager applet, results in a very slow scroll speed that is inconsistent with its use in standard scroll widgets in desktop applications, such as Dolphin. Additionally, using the setting found in System Settings-->Input Devices-->Mouse-->Advanced labelled "Mouse wheel scrolls by:" to increase the lines that the mouse wheel scrolls applies this setting in standard scroll widgets in desktop applications like Dolphin, but has no effect on the scroll speed of Plasma widgets. Reproducible: Always
Actually, sorry: the setting I listed does not appear to affect the scroll speed of either Plasma widgets nor standard scroll widgets in applications. Should I report that as a separate bug?
The Plasma ScrollView thing has been fixed for Qt 5.5 by https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/109615/ But that it does not work for traditional application scroll views is strange. Perhaps a glitch in the Framework integration plugin?
Perhaps. My Dolphin install is based on KDE 4.14.7. The setting does work for Frameworks 5.10-based System Settings.
Perhaps we're missing some kde4 settings migration there.
Should this be assigned to the frameworks-frameworkintegration product?
I think it's the systemsettings module that needs to write to both config locations.
Yeah, we track settings/daemon stuff in systemsettings Could you look in ~/.config/kdeglobals and ~/.kde4/share/config/kdeglobals and look for anything related to mouse settings?
What should I be looking for? I can't find anything related to "mouse", "input" or "scroll" in either file.
I have the same problem: increasing "Mouse wheel scrolls by" does not seem to have any effect. I'm using Kubuntu 14.04 LTS. KDELibs Version: 4.13.3 Qt Version: 4.8.6 Kernel Version: 3.16.0-38-generic OS-Type: 64-bit Also, I can't find these two files: ~/.config/kdeglobals and ~/.kde4/share/config/kdeglobals
https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/128703/ should fix the problem that the "Mouse wheel scrolls by:" setting was not written correctly to the KDE4 config.

[kcm_mouse] Sync KDE4 config after writing the KF5 settings, not before Kdelibs4SharedConfig::syncConfigGroup() reads the settings from the corresponding KF5 config files. If we don't write them before, it will use the previous settings. Also fix Kdelibs4SharedConfig::syncConfigGroup() to read the settings from the specified config file instead of always kdeglobals.
