Hello,
I was wondering how we can configure the mouse scrolling speed on Zorin OS 15.
I searched and there are many solutions with the terminal, being a beginner I prefer to avoid these solutions ...
I installed gnome-tweaks and ran it but I can't configure the mouse scrolling.
Can you help me?
For information I have :
Based on my research, it is not possible to tweak the mouse scrolling speed with Gnome Tweaks or even with a GUI tool. To be honest, this is an unnecessarily complex procedure. It should've just been a setting in the options... this is just as hard on other distros.
But I digress, you can follow the short instructions here and you should be good to go. Hope this helps.
I wouldn't say it's complex, but I agree that it could be simpler and this is an area where I think Zorin OS should definitely add its touch!
But there are no settings related to scroll speed. To my knowledge, this setting is also missing in other distros.
Will imwheel work?
Yeah that does work. I mentioned it earlier in one of the posts above.
just to add to this, I would love for this to just be a setting. I have no idea why it's not? I know other distros also don't have a setting for it. It just seems so outlandish that it's not a thing yet. :o
It is in Zorin OS Lite.
This may come down to a difference in Desktop Environments.
Where in that screenshot is there a setting to change mouse wheel scroll speed?
No where. I mistaked...
I was thinking about mouse pointer speed, not the scroll wheel.
this solution isn't working anymore, as the script is not available from the mentioned website anymore
This thread is 3 years old and I doubt it will work on newer release of Zorin or on Wayland.
is there any working fix for the latest version 18? i have the issue that my trackpad scrolls crazy fast, especially in chrome browsers, i scroll a whole page in 2cm of finger movement. mousescrolling is fine but the trackpad is way off and unusable.
If you are on Wayland this tool may help. I haven't tested it yet (and I'm not experienced to check if the script is safe to use):
On Xorg you can use xinput or imwheel.
Thank you !! The script works well.
