Thanks Chascon, well that's an hidden option so no wonder it's untested and has issues. You speak about touch devices but for those GTK 3.4 has "smooth scrolling" which should work correctly with the correct direction, I tested in nautilus and it does work as it should.
bug #949465 was about scrolling not working at all on 32 bits arch, it's a different issue from yours, what you describe seems to be a gtk bug, ideally somebody would report it upstream: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=gtk%2B -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/951123 Title: nautilus not natural scrolling Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I came to the conclusion after updates of ubuntu 12.04 on march the 9th, nautilus did not handle natural scrolling anymore, while in Chrome or Firefox or even any other application it still does. I enabled this feature in gnome-tweak and all works fine, except in nautilus.
