When I zoom in and out of an image using CTRL+Two-finger-scrolling on the touchpad, this goes way too fast/much too sensitive, so it is almost impossible to get to a desired magnification. Please have a look at https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=377128 as this one seems to be almost the same problem.
I forgot: this is for version 16.08.2, KDE Frameworks 5.32.0, Qt 5.8.0 (built against 5.8.0), the xcb windowing system
Confirmed.
Actually, since the touchpad emulated a scroll wheel, this is a duplicate of https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=307637#add_comment *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 307637 ***
Well, only kind of. Did you have a look at the bug report I linked? The problem is not really the increment. It is that it is almost impossible to select a particular increment. Zooming in 100% steps is not optimum, but I'd be ok, if I could reliably CRTL-Zoom there using the touchpad. That is not possible. The increment would probably have to be 0.1%-1% to be somewhat usable. So I beg you: please have a look at the linked okular bug report and check the solution presented there. Or, alternatively, compare the krita bug report at https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=378586 - they also fixed it already.
Ooooh lookie at that. Thanks for the additional info, Thomas. Not a duplicate. Though fixing https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=307637 will make this a little better until we can fix this.
I'm afraid my own C++ skills aren't yet sufficient to adapt either of those fixes to Gwenview, but maybe in the future... or maybe a charitable soul will stop by before then and do it first!
Created attachment 107764 [details] Patch to fix ctrl-scroll behavior via touchpad
I've adapted the okular solution and it seems to work as expected. Please review/test the attached patch. I'd be happy to see the fix in the next gwenview version.
Fantastic!!! Did you make sure that the patch didn't break scroll wheel behavior? If so, can you upload the patch to Phabricator (http://phabricator.kde.org/) with the details of your testing? Use the Gwenview repo and as reviewers, add "KDE Applications", Albert Astral Cid, Kai Uwe Broulik, and Christoph Feck.
Tested with mouse wheel. Works as expected as far as I can tell. I'll try to submit it.
No chance. I cannot log in to phabricator. Could you (or someone who has access) please submit it? (KDE identity doesn't let me in, I cannot register as my address is already taken, I cannot reset my password)
Sure, I can do it. Patch URL is https://phabricator.kde.org/D7744 Long-term, it would be a good idea to sort out your Phabricator access, since this is now the central portal for contributing patches to KDE software.

Git commit c4a84dad6292b9c7918bec8d7ed33114d3758730 by Albert Astals Cid, on behalf of Thomas Mitterfellner. Committed on 09/09/2017 at 09:39. Pushed by aacid into branch 'Applications/17.08'. Reduce hyper-sensitive touchpad scroll-zoom speed Summary: Reduce hyper-sensitive touchpad scroll-zoom speed in Gwenview Test Plan: Submitting this on behalf of Thomas Mitterfellner since he's having trouble with his Phabricator access. Patch is modeled after Albert's similar patch for Okular in https://cgit.kde.org/okular.git/commit/?id=7a50ce0edfc9be8bd23441e52a4f3a0c60f7e60f. Thomas has tested locally with a touchpad and scroll wheel, and I have tested in a KDE Neon VM. Seems to work as expected.
