Bug Description

The "scroll wheel to change desktop" feature works inconsistantly accross full-screen applications. In full-screen Firefox, having the cursor at the left edge of the screen and scrolling does nothing, while in full-screen Evince it switches desktops.

Note : it might be a special case of bug 277195. However, as I am not sure, I am opening a new report.

Thank you for bringing this bug to our attention. However, a paper cut should be a small usability issue, in the default Ubuntu install, that affects many people and is quick and easy to fix. So this bug can't be addressed as part of this project.

- I'm unable to reproduce this bug. Further this would be a bug and not a design flaw.
For further information about papercuts criteria, please read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PaperCut.

Don't worry though, this bug has been marked as "Invalid" only in the papercuts project.
