[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1240957] Re: Scrolling behaviour and window focus has changed and is inconsistent
So, what makes the gnome-shell desktop different to Unity and KDE? The X server, GTK etc are all the same. The difference is in technical details of the window manager. The issue also only happens if you are grabbing the scroll events to do something with those, it might be that gnome-shell doesn't do that (while unity uses scrolling over the launcher to cycle through applications for example) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1240957 Title: Scrolling behaviour and window focus has changed and is inconsistent Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit: Fix Released Status in X.Org X server: Confirmed Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I wasn't sure which package to file this bug against, but seeing as it's a general desktop usability/consistency bug, the top level desktop environment seemed like a good target.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1240957] Re: Scrolling behaviour and window focus has changed and is inconsistent
A bit more testing (all on Ubuntu 14.04 as of 2014-04-01). XFCE4 (apt-get install xubuntu-desktop): Windows get focused on scroll events, so this bug could not be tested there. Couldn't easily find a setting to turn that off (I assume it's buried somewhere though). Nautilus, gEdit, mousepad all scroll normally, but of course they all are focused and brought to the top of the window stack on the first scroll event. FWIW, mousepad installed on Ubuntu 13.10 under the regular Unity 7 desktop scrolls without focus just fine. I noticed it's a GTK2 app. KDE: Kate scrolls without focus, but gEdit does not. (just had to check whether KDE native apps had a similar issue). So it's basically GTK3 apps when not running under Gnome-Shell, and only with a mouse scrollwheel but not a touchpad, that have this issue with unfocused scrolling. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1240957 Title: Scrolling behaviour and window focus has changed and is inconsistent Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit: Fix Released Status in X.Org X server: Confirmed Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I wasn't sure which package to file this bug against, but seeing as it's a general desktop usability/consistency bug, the top level desktop environment seemed like a good target.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1240957] Re: Scrolling behaviour and window focus has changed and is inconsistent
Thanks for responding Sebastien. This bug isn't about switching workspaces with scroll events, it's about being able to scroll windows with a mouse that aren't in focus. Basically, it works with a touchpad (all windows are able to scroll without focus), but not with a mouse scrollwheel. The default X desktop behaviour since forever has been to be able to scroll any scrollable window that the pointer is hovering above, regardless of whether it's in focus or not. For the record, I've been affected by this bug even today, where I wanted to have two gEdit windows open side by side, and had to keep focusing the windows to scroll them, whereas normally I'd just hover over one window and scroll it while editing the other with the keyboard. This bug is also a regression from Ubuntu 12.04.. so might be more important if you have a bunch of 12.04 LTS users upgrading next month. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1240957 Title: Scrolling behaviour and window focus has changed and is inconsistent Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit: Fix Released Status in X.Org X server: Confirmed Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I wasn't sure which package to file this bug against, but seeing as it's a general desktop usability/consistency bug, the top level desktop environment seemed like a good target.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1240957] Re: Scrolling behaviour and window focus has changed and is inconsistent
Just did some testing (with two gEdit windows) this morning, Ubuntu 14.04 updated to the latest packages as of today (2014-04-01). I apt-get installed ubuntu-gnome-desktop and kubuntu-desktop on a regular Ubuntu 14.04 install. GNOME desktop (gnome-shell): Both gEdit windows can be scrolled with the pointer hovering over the window, regardless of focus. GNOME desktop classic (I guess still gnome shell?): Same as GNOME desktop, scrolling works while hovering, regardless of focus. KDE plasma desktop: gEdit window needs to be focused to be scrolled Ubuntu Unity desktop: gEdit window needs to be focused to be scrolled And on Ubuntu 14.04 (around beta 1 packages) on a netbook with a touchpad and mouse connected: Nautilus windows can be scrolled with the touchpad while hovering, regardless of focus, but NOT with the mouse. So, what makes the gnome-shell desktop different to Unity and KDE? The X server, GTK etc are all the same. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1240957 Title: Scrolling behaviour and window focus has changed and is inconsistent Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit: Fix Released Status in X.Org X server: Confirmed Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I wasn't sure which package to file this bug against, but seeing as it's a general desktop usability/consistency bug, the top level desktop environment seemed like a good target.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1240957] Re: Scrolling behaviour and window focus has changed and is inconsistent
Hi Vassili, This still requires a fix to xorg-server for the whole fix to be complete and the patch is still waiting to be ack'd upstream. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1240957 Title: Scrolling behaviour and window focus has changed and is inconsistent Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit: Fix Released Status in X.Org X server: Confirmed Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I wasn't sure which package to file this bug against, but seeing as it's a general desktop usability/consistency bug, the top level desktop environment seemed like a good target.

Here's what I've found: The scrolling behaviour has changed, and seems to be different per application in Ubuntu 13.10.

Adding xorg-server since that is the missing piece. There are some patches proposed for upstream xorg-server that does fix this issue in my testing.
