Change the mouse scroll sensitivity in KDE Plasma?












1















I have a Logitech M325 mouse and use KDE Plasma 5 on X11. I am a long-time middle-button paster. I love the newer hi-res wheels for actually scrolling things, especially given that I can just put a spin on it



However, I've found it difficult to paste because pressing the wheel often results in a bit of scroll too. I most often notice this in konsole where I'm pasting to bash and suddenly find myself in older shell history rather than appending to the command I was building.



Anyone know of a neat trick to make the first few scroll ticks be ignored or achieve something similar?

  • I avoid non-notched "smooth" scroll wheels for exactly that reason. Have one at work and it just keeps scrolling when I don't want to, and that's even on Windows with the official drivers.

  • @zak The M325 has a notched wheel, but it's subtle and insufficient without exerting care. If the notch was more pronounced, that would adversely affect the spin quality.
