Description Aaron Lu 2018-11-16 03:34:13 CET
Filed at Fedora's bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1648818
Advised to file upstream, so here it is.

Mouse scroll doesn't work in windows like the 'select style' window of the Appearance window.
Mouse scroll works elsewhere like firefox, file manager, etc., including the settings window itself.
But once clicking into items like Appearance, Window Manager, the style list won't scroll with mouse.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. login to xfce
2. start setting manager
3. choose Appearance
4. Scroll the style list using mouse

Actual results:
nothing happened

Expected results:
list scroll

Yes, it looks like so, thanks for the pointer.
I'll test the workaround on Monday - the affected box is in the office.

Comment 4 Aaron Lu 2018-11-19 06:58:03 CET
It did!
Both workarounds of "clicking the mouse and then scroll" and "$ GDK_CORE_DEVICE_EVENTS=1 xfce4-settings-manager" work for me, thanks.
