Yes, I requested "Mouse Acceleration" not any other name for it, or behaviour. And this bug/feature request should implement it as "Mouse Acceleration" as that is the term used when humans talk about it, namely in the gaming community/industries.
I have posted in that thread you've linked to, thanks for pointing me to this. It would be a mistake to call this feature anything but "Mouse Acceleration" as that is what a human is expecting to see when looking for that setting, and using any other term or verbiage would tangibly make it harder to actually know which setting disables "Mouse Acceleration". The fact there are guides showing how to disable "Mouse Acceleration" in other operating systems reliably demonstrates that the terms used by Windows/macOS, etc, are not sensible or self-indicative terms. If the term used were "Mouse Acceleration", a guide realistically would likely not be needed at all. Adding a function should always take usability into consideration, and there is a very tangible usability difference between "Mouse Acceleration" as a term for the function, or _any other term used_. The devs will do as they may, but again, it would be a tangible mistake to not use "Mouse Acceleration" as the name. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1739635 Title: Can we please get Mouse Acceleration as a GUI control?
