Public bug reported: Binary package hint: compiz
After enabling Desktop Effects on Gutsy, using the mouse wheel over the desktop switches between desktops. I think this feature should not be enabled by default: - by enabling this feature, switching on the "Visual Effects" unexpectedly (for me as user) changes functionality - while I think this is indeed a feature that could be useful, in my opinion it should have a setting on its own, instead of "sneaking in" with the Desktop effects :-) - personally, I have problems with this feature, as my notebook mouse is quite sensitive for touching the mousewheel. When the mouse is over the desktop, it occasionally happens that I touch the wheel strong enough to accidentally switch screens, which is quite annoying. As a side problem, I have not found a way to disable this feature without installing ccsm - so I suppose disabling this feature will for most users involve googling, instead of intuitively finding a checkbox somewhere that disables this feature. Summary: I would appreciate if this behavior is disabled by default. ** Affects: compiz (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- if compiz is enabled, using mouse wheel over desktop switches desktops https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/175986 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
