Bug ID: 388225
Summary: Mouse wheel input setting should show a dropdown menu
Product: krita
Version: 3.2.1
Platform: Debian testing
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Usability
Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: towerof...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
Steps to reproduce shows the problem clearly:
1. Open Canvas Input Settings (settings -> configure krita... -> canvas input
settings).
2. Open one of the sections, e.g. Pan Canvas.
3. Click on "Add shortcut..." at the bottom of the table
4. Set the Type to Mouse Wheel.
5. Double click on the Input cell ("None" by default) to show the
input/modifier settings.
>From here, I would click on "Mouse Wheel" and then scroll my wheel in a
direction, e.g. up. This would set the value to Mouse Wheel Up (etc). However,
on my Linux system, *the scroll wheel is not detected.* Thus, I can't set the
setting.
I should note that the scroll wheel *does* work correctly within the actual
paint UI - I can zoom in/out with the scroll wheel just fine (there's a setting
"Zoom Canvas" -> "Mouse Wheel Down: Zoom Out"). It's just that the settings UI
doesn't detect my mouse wheel.
I propose that, rather than that setting require the user to scroll their mouse
wheel (which, of course, needs it to be detectable through the UI - which
evidently isn't always the case), there should be a dropdown menu with the
possible options in it ("Mouse Wheel Down", "Mouse Wheel Up").
Another case of this being a particularly bad problem would be if I
accidentally removed the binding for zooming in/out - then I'd never be able to
use the mouse to zoom, because the setting would be gone and I'd not be able to
restore it! (I could restore all defaults, but then any other settings I'd made
would be gone.)
(This obviously should also be extended to the other options, like "Mouse
Button", but just implementing it for "Mouse Wheel" would fix this particular
case.)
[This is my first bug/feature report here, so, sorry if I've forgotten to
provide any other useful information. For what it's relevant, I'm running Krita
on Debian testing, using Gnome Xorg (not wayland).)
