Created attachment 164791 [details] Screenshot to illustrate SUMMARY When adding more virtual desktops than can be fitted within the overview, the list of virtual desktops gets scrollable, but scroll direction is inverted and scroll acceleration very slow. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 0. Virtual desktop are configured to the default of 1 row. (1-dimensional horizontal layout) 1. Open overview 2. Add virtual desktops using the overview until "+" button moved out of screen 3. Select a virtual desktop and scroll the list of workspaces sideways until "+" button is moved back on screen. OBSERVED RESULT 1. Scrolling direction is inverted than what is configured globals. For example, if natural scrolling is enabled, you would need to scroll from left to right. 2. Scrolling is VERY "slow" / unresponsive. EXPECTED RESULT - Scrolling should behave as configured (i.e. proper scroll direction and acceleration). SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora Rawhide (reproducable on KDE Neon unstable as well) with 6.7.0-68.fc40.x86_64 KDE Plasma Version: 5.91.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.247.0 Qt Version: 6.6.1 Device: Framework 13 w/ AMD Ryzen 7 7840U 32GB RAM ADDITIONAL INFORMATION - When using a 1-d vertical layout (by configuring 20 rows), virtual desktop are placed vertically on the overview and their vertical list is NOT scrollable.
The horizontal list is scrolling in the same direction as on scrollable documents for me, but it is very slow. The bigger issue I notice is that the list of desktops isn't scrollable without first clicking on the + or a desktop thumbnail and changing desktops. Of course, this is probably a bit of an edge case since it takes a lot of desktops to become an issue at all.

Weird! Are you using a trackpad or a mouse? Do you have natural scrolling enabled or disabled? Natural scrolling is the only setting I played around with on an otherwise vanilla system. Yeah, if you reopen the overview you need to select a desktop thumbnail to be able to scroll through the list. But I thought that it might be an UI/UX decision to not scroll on mouse over. Sure, it is a bit of an edge case, but there are definitely people out there that are using a lot of virtual desktops. Some of them might be even former users of other DEs that are familiar with a 1-d horizontal layout. ;-)

Those would be separate issues; could you submit new separate bug reports for them? Thanks!

Thanks! Added a report for that. See https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=479657
