[Firefox] Highly sensitive touchpad scrolling fix for Wayland!
[Firefox] Highly sensitive touchpad scrolling fix for Wayland!
Been tinkering with alot of parameters in about:config, but I finally a viable solution:
We all know that changing mousewheel.default.delta_multiplier_Any particular Axis values changes the minimum number of lines being scrolled
But what this does not change is the sensitivity of the smallest "fling" gesture when scrolling with a touchpad.
Here's the values you want to alter when trying make the scrolling feel more "tighter" or more "Windows like" or to fix the issue described above:
set apz.fling_friction 0.002 --> 0.005
apz.fling_min_velocity_threshold 0.5 --> 1.5
the above will make the smooth scrolling with touchpad actually feel smooth and in control. As opposed to simply changing the delta multiplier values.
You're viewing a single thread.
Just don't use Wayland. Problem fixed!

shudder gross. Wayland is the systemd of display protocols.
1 4 ReplyIf only. Systemd is mature to the point it is the de facto init system and used by almost all distros. Wayland and its compositors are still in development.
1 0 ReplySystemd was that way. It was the wide adoption forcing it down our throats that allowed it to mature. Wayland is doing that now.
