Title:
Gedit scrolling jumps to wrong location after re-focusing on window
and scrolling mouse wheel slightly
Status in “gedit” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
While Gedit application is open, switch to another application which
allows mouse wheel scrolling, such as Chromium web browser, or
Firefox, or LibreOffice Writer. Use mouse wheel to scroll up or down
in the web browser. Switch back to Gedit and nudge the mouse wheel
slightly. The Gedit window seems to be saving all mouse wheel
scrolling commands from the mouse wheel while in Chromium and applying
them to the Gedit window, causing the scrolling to jump to the wrong
location in the document. If I scroll up in Chromium, then switch to
Gedit and scroll down in Gedit, it will instead scroll up by the same
amount that I scrolled up in Chromium. Gedit ignores the command from
the mouse wheel and applies the scroll activity from the previous
window instead. This bug does not seem to be affecting other
applications which uses mouse scrolling. Chromium, Firefox, and
LibreOffice Writer all work fine and do not jump. Only Gedit jumps to
the wrong location on returning to the window and nudging the mouse
wheel slightly.
