Bug Description
I have just upgraded to 20.04 LTS Focal Fossa GNOME version 3.36.2 and now experiencing some (minor) issues.
When entering the app list (through the graphic button on the edge of the dock) and trying scrolling through my apps using the touchpad, scrolling is either not working or works partly - i.e i'm being able to move only between the first two pages. If moving to a different page by clicking the dots to the right side (say page 3 or 4), scrolling is locked.
Interestingly, scrolling works fine when using my mouse wheel, and depending on what page i'm ending up in, trying to use touchpad afterwards allows me to scroll through the 3 pages - the one i started in, the previous one, the one after.
I'm certain my touchpad is not damaged, as it works as usual when browsing the net with several browsers.
I used to have this problem as well back in 18.04: https:/
and it seemed like the scrolling response improved majorly in the sense that gradual scrolling is now possible, making the experience more fluid than it used to be.
