Bug ID: 429359
Summary: Scroll to switch Virtual Desktop not working (Kubuntu
20.10)
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.19.5
Platform: Kubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Desktop Containment
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
Configure Desktop > Mouse actions > Vertical scroll > Switch Desktop
The mouse action does not work. Vertical scroll seems to not respond at all.
I've tried setting other actions (e.g. switch window, open standard menu, etc)
to Vertical scroll to try triggering it, without success.
I've set the change desktop action to other mouse buttons (left), where it did
open the virtual desktop "drop-down" list.
It seems to me that Vertical Scroll is not registered as it was previously.
This is on Kubuntu 20.10.
Prior to doing a reinstall, I was running 20.04, where it worked "as it always
have".
To check if I was loosing my marbles, I verified this on my desktop, which is
still running 20.04: scrolling worked as should.
I also had my friend check his setups. He observed the same as me:
PC running 20.04 had vertical scroll = change virtual desktop working as it
should; however on the PC with a 20.10 install it didn't work.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install Kubuntu 20.10 (or likely the KDE/Plasma release shipped in it?)
2. Try to change virtual desktop via scrolling.
3. Observe *nothing* ;)
OBSERVED RESULT
- Scrolling to change virtual desktop not working as it should.
EXPECTED RESULT
- Scrolling with mouse wheel on desktop should change the virtual desktop.
- This has been default behavious for as long as I can remember.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Kubuntu 20.10
KDE Plasma Version: 5.19.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.74.0
Qt Version: 5.14.2
Kernel Version: 5.8.0-29-generic
OS Type: 64-bit
Processors: 8 × Intel® Core™ i7-4870HQ CPU @ 2.50GHz
Memory: 15,5 GiB of RAM

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
- I have not done a deep dive in setting, to see if there's some new toggle
somewhere that prevents this from working. I'm assuming a new toggle isn't the
case, since the scrolling is still a Default > On setting when doing a fresh
install.
