Mouse wheel and modifier key are captured by applications. This makes using the zoom tool less convenient and intuitive. If a user changes the zoom, the focused application is scrolled at the same time. Steps to reproduce: * Install xorg * Install cinnamon * Enable Desktop zoom * Open any application with scrollable area or just minimize size of the settings dialog * Zoom in and notice scrolling in the application The problem exists both with Alt and Super modifier. With Super modifier it's even more problematic, because the Start/Main Cinammon menu is activated right after exiting the zoom, because it captures the modifier too. Note: Cinnamon is running on X11.
Hi Ruslan, this is still present in the current versions (Cinnamon 6.6.9, muffin 6.6.3) and the cause is in muffin, so I've reassigned the bug there. Upstream references: - https://github.com/linuxmint/muffin/issues/695 (analysis of the scroll passthrough) - https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon/issues/12587 - https://github.com/linuxmint/muffin/pull/854 (proposed fix for both the scrolling and the Super key opening the menu, not merged yet) - https://github.com/linuxmint/muffin/pull/838 (alternative proposed fix) Regards, Fabio
