Hi Gianluca No, I did not comment on scrolling in the overview, if you want it there then by all means have it there too. And no I dont feel that scrolling on the desktop will be confusing IF it is off by default, then no one can get confused as it is off We also talking about two different type of users, I am at a desktop with a mouse and you are on a laptop with a track-pad. So having extra options, that are off by default, but can be enabled later covers more use cases, than one size fits all. _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
