Yes, this is very irritating. The old behavior was excellent. I find myself using vim in virtual consoles, where that is still the default behavior with gpm, instead of gvim, whenever possible. I suspect changes to gtk, since that has also changed behavior in firefox unless configuration is explicitly changed. Have you noticed that all scroll bars became click-to-position instead of click-pgup-pgdn? That was due to the change in gtk. Even changing the setting doesn't get rid of all of it, since that is still the behavior I see in claws-mail, though it did fix firefox. Great for small touch screens. Not so hot for large screens with pointing devices attached. First, I used the suggestion from the arch wiki at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GTK%2B ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini [Settings] gtk-primary-button-warps-slider = false except I changed it to =0 like the rest of the settings in the file. And from comment 42 in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=803633 Note, I figured a way that works for all gtk 2.0 applications while keeping Adwaita: Create a $HOME/.themes/Adwaita/gtk-2.0/gtkrc file with the following content: include "/usr/share/themes/Adwaita/gtk-2.0/gtkrc" gtk-primary-button-warps-slider = 0 Now firefox works, but as the arch wiki says, not all applications respect this setting. So it doesn't fix everything with this behavior. It is also possible to leave this behavior as click-to-position, and instead use the right click to get the old click-pgup-pgdn behavior that used to be left click. That doesn't fix this behavior in gvim, though. Probably another change is responsible for that. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
