Bug Description

This manifests most in Chrome for me. I fling-scroll a page to the top, it reaches the top, then I press Ctrl and the page will zoom in suddenly. I think the fling momentum is not being damped when the page reaches the top. I would expect the momentum to be damped in the same way as the page is when it reaches the top.

Fwiw, this happens to me several times a day, even though I'm trying to change my habits to workaround it. It also took me several weeks to figure out the cause of the problem, so I wonder if this bug's "affects" count is unchanged because people (a) don't know what's causing the problem they're seeing, and (b) don't know how to phrase it to the bug tracker anyway.

Marking as invalid for Unity because (a) Chromium does its own scrolling and flinging and (2) Unity is not involved in application gestures.

Changed in unity (Ubuntu):

The opposite happens if you fling down.

Just to check, what version of chromium-browser do you have?

We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. This bug was reported some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu and Chromium since that time.

Ubuntu 13.10 (saucy) reached end-of-life on July 17, 2014.

The upstream bug report was closed in August 2015 die to a lack of activity. Do you still see a problem related to the one that was reported using currently supported versions of Chromium and Ubuntu?

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.

no comments here for over 5 years and no reply to comment #7 so closing as fixed
