Hi, I'm afraid I can't reproduce this, could you maybe supply a video of the behaviour? Thanks.

Hi Michal!

Please, check the video attached.

Regards.

Javier, you just don't have any other scopes favourited, if I'm seeing correctly?

You can click on the [^] button at the bottom to display all the installed scopes. You'll see at the top that you only have Today as a favourite.

To list your favourite scopes from a terminal:
$ gsettings get com.canonical.Unity.Dash favorite-scopes

And to reset it:
$ gsettings reset com.canonical.Unity.Dash favorite-scopes

Hope this helps.

Oh wait now I saw better - I think the problem is potentially the virtual touchpad that doesn't detect your two-finger gesture well.

You can see that the cursor ends up on the left edge, invoking the launcher, and it's only at that point when the scrolling doesn't work.

You should be able to use a single finger, too, with a "tap-and-drag" gesture, just like on laptop touchpads (you tap twice and hold-and-drag the second tap).

Hi Michal,

I tested it as you said and the issue is still reproducible, I could be able to change to left side, why I could not to the right side?. Could you reproduce the issue on your side?

Regards.

[Michał Sawicz (saviq)]

Yeah I'm able to reproduce now, it must be a weird interaction between Qt's ListView and horizontal scrolling on the touchpad. I can reproduce a similar issue on my laptop under unity7.

Hi all,

The issue is not reproducible in OTA 14 firmware version.

Thank you.

Best regards.
