Right now I can not create a video nor share my desktop so I will try to explain the problem in more details.
Imagine to have a vanilla Ubuntu, you open a terminal and type dmesg. If you have a trackpad with double fingers scrolling enabled and you want to see what dmesg printed first, you need to place two fingers at the bottom of the trackpad and swipe them to the top. Now, if you want to enable natural scrolling (i.e. swipe top-down to scroll a page up, like in smartphones or tablets), you can for example use Xmodmap and use that settings contained in the bug description. If you open again a terminal and try to follow the steps presented above, you will notice that to scroll the terminal up, you will have to swipe top-down. That means hich means that the Xmodmap setting has been properly honored by gnome-terminal. Now back to the Empathy problem: once you enable natural scrolling, it works properly inside chat windows only: if you open the contact list, place the scrollbar at the top and try to swipe bottom-up to reach the bottom of the list, you won't notice any scrollbar movement. On the other hand, if you swipe top-down, the scrollbar starts to move to the bottom of the contact list as if the Xmodmap setting was not honored at all. Let me know if this description shed some light on the problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1032500 Title: Natural scrolling not working in Empathy contact list window To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/1032500/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
