Description cjansson77 2017-08-10 02:19:26 UTC
Component: In which sub-part of the software does it exist?
This field is required. Click the word "Component" to see a description of each component. If none seems appropriate, look for a "General" component.

OS: On which operating system (OS) did you find it? (e.g. Linux, Windows XP, Mac OS X.)
If you know the bug happens on more than one type of operating system, choose All. If your OS isn't listed, choose Other.

Summary: How would you describe the bug, in approximately 60 or fewer characters?
A good summary should quickly and uniquely identify a bug report. It should explain the problem, not your suggested solution.

    Good: "Cancelling a File Copy dialog crashes File Manager"
    Bad: "Software crashes"
    Bad: "Browser should work with my web site"

Description: Checking the "Reverse Scrolling" (vertical and horizontal) have no effect.

    Overview: I would like to enable reverse scrolling, but when I check the boxes in System Settings it doesn't change anything. I am clicking Apply.

    Steps to Reproduce: Minimized, easy-to-follow steps that will trigger the bug. Include any special setup steps.

        1) Open System Settings
        2) Click on Input Devices
        3) Click on Touchpad
        4) Navigate to the Scrolling tab
        5) Select reverse scrolling for vertical, horizontal or both.
        6) Test out your new scroll settings and be disappointed :( 


    Actual Results: Reverse scrolling was not enabled.

    Expected Results: Reverse scrolling should be enabled.

    Build Date & Platform: Date and platform of the build in which you first encountered the bug.

For future bugs, you can leave out the instructions.

Does it still not work after a restart? Do you have xserver-xorg-input-synaptics installed? What kind of hardware are you using? FWIW the reverse scrolling feature works for me in Kubuntu 17.04 with xserver-xorg-input-synaptics and a late 2016 HP Spectre x360.
