Created attachment 157523 [details] mousekcm It seems that the mouse kcm doesn't default to the settings for the mouse currently being used. It confused me as I believed I was editing the settings for the right mouse.
Are you on a laptop with a trackpoint/nub mouse thingy that also has a physical mouse plugged in?
I was on a desktop with 2 mice. Only one of them was active but the mouse drop down had the inactive mouse first.
So there were 2 actual mice plugged in, got it. In this context, what does "currently active mouse" mean? Mice can't really be turned off or on.
I think it would mean the one with the most recent record of movement. They are both "active" in the sense that they are recorded in the system and the system can receive input from both. However, I am thinking that there could be a clever way the system knows which one you are currently manipulating the system with and should automatically change to that as the default option in the KCM. You have to think that this is not as intuitive as we have a dropdown menu for the mouse list which only shows 1 option at a time.
Makes sense and seems reasonable to me.
