To explain my understanding of acceleration: The mouse wheel has a certain amount of lines that are scrolled with each scroll. This is often called "scroll speed"
An acceleration would increase/decrease the scroll speed dynamically based on how often the wheel scrolls in a certain amount of time. So if I rotate the wheel fast also the speed is increased meaning one also needs to rotate the wheel as often as one would need to if scrolling slower. I think this is the usecase - accuracy or speed in scrolling can be delivered as needed. I am not sure, whether there is also something like scroll speed implemented. At least KDE offers a setting for it. So if speed is implemented one can implement "acceleration" as something that changes the speed. Also I'd suggest a changeable value how strong the acceleration will be. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/619403 Title: [KDE] no option for mouse wheel acceleration To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/619403/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
