Public bug reported: Hi,
The sensitivity area of the launcher (that makes it automatically scroll up or down when one has more than a dozen icons in it) used to be quite large and comfortable. However, after an update it has been narrowed down to two tiny spots, none of which even extend to the upper or lower edges of the screen. For instance, to scroll down, one should hover the 1cm wide area over the unremovable rubbish bin icon. This demands precision and patience, for no gain with respect to the previous version: before this update, it felt like the lower (hidden) part of the launcher unfolded by taking into account the ratio (height of the screen over the mouse)/(height under the mouse), which was quite convenient. Also the rubbish icon was not glued to the lower left corner, and I think that the two problems are related. I'm using ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS, and my version of unity is 5.20.0-0ubuntu3. ** Affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: launcher scroll -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.
