[Bug 1785600] Re: Natural scrolling is only applied in one direction (vertical)
It can be fixed following the instructions in this answer: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1029128/inverted-horizontal-scrolling-ubuntu-18-04#answer-1031657 I've had the problem before. It seems like a weird why-bother-choice by the community / Canonical. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1785600 Title: Natural scrolling is only applied in one direction (vertical) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1785600/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Please also try some other apps (like Firefox), and list all those affected by the problem.

[Bug 1785600] Re: Natural scrolling is only applied in one direction (vertical)
@vanvugt Hmm OK, now I'm starting to doubt myself again. It might still be messed up, but when I move my fingers right, that means that content to the left of the view should move to the right, correct? And the scrollbar should move to the left? Because that's not happening, I think. I've attached a short screencast, which shows gedit with content wider than the viewport. I move my fingers to the right on the touchpad, with natural scrolling turned on. Nevertheless, content that's currently to the right of the viewport scrolls into view, i.e. to the left. Sorry if I'm getting it wrong again, I'm really confused right now :S ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => New ** Attachment added: "Screencast of me moving my fingers to the right." https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1785600/+attachment/5178004/+files/MovingMyFingersRight.webm -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1785600 Title: Natural scrolling is only applied in one direction (vertical) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1785600/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

No problem. I actually assumed it was still broken at first, since it used to be.

@vanvugt Aaargh OK, on the one hand I knew that, on the other hand apparently my intuition is completely messed up. I don't know why that is, anyway, it seems to indeed work as intended.

[Bug 1785600] Re: Natural scrolling is only applied in one direction (vertical)
I've just tested this in 18.10 (Firefox) and natural scrolling is correctly applied to both vertical and horizontal movement. Also, I think your statements are confused: * "when I move my fingers up, the content scrolls down". Yes, we call that scrolling "down" (the viewport) so the content is moving "up" which is the same direction as your fingers. * "when I move my fingers right, the content also moves right. I would expect it to move left with Natural Scrolling turned on." Yes, correct behaviour with natural scrolling when moving your fingers right is for the content to move right (and the scrollbar/viewport moves left). "Natural scrolling" means the page is virtually stuck to your fingers, so the scroll direction will always be the opposite direction to your finger movement. So it seems like everything is working. Is there a particular app you find isn't working? ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1785600 Title: Natural scrolling is only applied in one direction (vertical) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1785600/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
