Binary package hint: compiz
After enabling Desktop Effects on Gutsy, using the mouse wheel over the desktop switches between desktops. I think this feature should not be enabled by default:
- by enabling this feature, switching on the "Visual Effects" unexpectedly (for me as user) changes functionality - while I think this is indeed a feature that could be useful, in my opinion it should have a setting on its own, instead of "sneaking in" with the Desktop effects :-)
- personally, I have problems with this feature, as my notebook mouse is quite sensitive for touching the mousewheel. When the mouse is over the desktop, it occasionally happens that I touch the wheel strong enough to accidentally switch screens, which is quite annoying.
As a side problem, I have not found a way to disable this feature without installing ccsm - so I suppose disabling this feature will for most users involve googling, instead of intuitively finding a checkbox somewhere that disables this feature.
Summary:
I would appreciate if this behavior is disabled by default. |
