Here's a patch, based on reverting the patch that disabled this feature [1]. Tested to work with at least Gedit and Nautilus, but I haven't tried if any other apps might regress.
I hope Ubuntu will decide to carry this if the GTK3 guys don't go back to previous behavior. Right now we have e.g. Chromium and Gnome Terminal supporting mouse wheel, while e.g. Gedit and Nautilus do not. That's inconsistent. ** Patch added: "undo_no_scroll.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+3.0/+bug/872055/+attachment/3058884/+files/undo_no_scroll.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gtk+3.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/872055 Title: GtkNotbook scrolling tabs throug mouse doesn't work anymore Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I don't know why, but scrolling through tabs using the mouse wheel (also on touchpads) doesn't work anymore. Thats pretty annoying, is this feature of gnome one of the most used by me. Where can I, or can it be enabled?
