Description Douglas 2022-10-17 01:59:48 UTC

Description of problem:
In a directory that contains hundreds of files (mostly images and videos) I'm seeing abnormal scroll behavior. The view jumps ahead (skips a portion of the list) when I scroll fast enough. This is a laptop, and I'm using the touchpad with a 2-finger gesture to scroll.

Nautilus is in its default configuration. I didn't change anything in it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
43.0

How reproducible:
About 40% of the time a fast scrolling gesture is made.

Additional info:
- Fedora Workstation 37 Beta
- GNOME on Wayland
- Fresh install with default options, pretty clean, no added extensions.

I'm having this issue as well as the one in bug 2130511 when scrolling with the mouse wheel, but not with my touchpad.

The mouse is a Logitech MX Master and the touchpad is recognized as SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad. F37, running on X11.

Hi Matthias, since this has been fixed in gtk4, can the fix be backported to our stable branches?

Comment 4 Ondrej Holy 2023-05-12 08:11:45 UTC

What's your gtk4 version? It should be already fixed in 4.10.3 if I recall correctly.

Comment 6 Ondrej Holy 2023-05-15 08:14:11 UTC

Ah, I haven't noticed it is for Fedora 37.

Comment 7 Alexander Ploumistos 2023-05-15 08:56:39 UTC

Will also nautilus require a rebuild? I see it has both runtime and buildtime deps on gtk4?

Comment 8 Douglas 2023-06-29 18:20:25 UTC

Can we close this? I'm running F38 and it's no longer reproducible.

This was reported against F37. Has the fix been ported to F37? As far as I can tell from bodhi and koji, it hasn't.
