When you scroll a text document a few steps by accident, you don't lose your place that much. You are just a few lines off from where you were. However, when you scroll on the window list, you need to make the *EXACT* same number of scrolls to get back to where you were. This is hard to do on a laptop touchpad. The scrolling works really well when you have a normal mouse, however I think that it is hard to control with a laptop, and false-positive detection of scrolling can make things worst, rather than better, with the new feature. -- Ben -- Offer option to disable scroll wheel on task list https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/39328 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
