Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: compiz
Intrepid i386, latest updates, Visual Effects set to Normal or Extra but
not None.
I know that the mouse scrollwheel moves between desktops when used on
the desktop background - as in #175986.
However it also does this when over parts of application windows.
Specifically, in Evolution, when the scrollwheel is used on the bar that
lies between the toolbar and the messages (the one with the folder name,
search box etc.), and also on the status bar. This is confusing - I can
be using the scrollwheel to scroll through a message, and if I happen to
be slightly out of position, I end up on another desktop - even if
Evolution is maximised. When the mouse is over the menu or the toolbar,
the scrollwheel correctly has no effect.
I thought this was an Evolution bug, and then I discovered Nautilus does
it as well - but only when the mouse is over its status bar at the
bottom of the window; Wireshark behaves similarly. I was expecting the
scrollwheel to move between desktops only when the mouse was over the
desktop.
