Jason Warner (jasoncwarner) wrote : Horizontal scrolling feels backwards

I use an Apple Might Mouse (http://fundapk.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Mighty-Mouse-2005.jpg). The nub in the middle allows for both vertical and horizontal scrolling in the same wheel.

The mouse scroll wheel and/or track pad (my laptop is in the shop so I can't test that) direction changed recently. When I scroll to the right, expecting to move the window (nautilus, say) to the right, it doesn't, it goes left. I think this is called 'natural scrolling'.

Down still scrolls down, up still scrolls up, but left and right seem reversed.
