[Bug 686128] Re: Zoom / scroll behaviour is inconsistent with other Gnome programs

 

Eog now uses dconf instead of gconf so if one want to set the value it
false so that the application integrates better in gnome, you must

$ sudo apt-get install dconf-tools
$ dconf-editor

Go to org/gnome/eog/view and uncheck scroll-wheel-zoom

Title:
  Zoom / scroll behaviour is inconsistent with other Gnome programs

Status in Eye of GNOME:
  Won't Fix
Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  Invalid
Status in “eog” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: eog

  In other applications on the Ubuntu/Gnome desktop the scrollwheel
  allows the user to move around the document / image. Ctrl + scroll
  wheel is used when the user wishes to zoom the document / image. In
  EOG the behaviour is the exact opposite.

  ==Other applications with scrollwheel = scroll, scrollwheel + ctrl = zoom:==
  OpenOffice.org / Libre Office
  Nautilus
  Chromium
  Inkscape
  evince
  + others

  ==========================================================
  Ubuntu 10.04 + others

  
  Action:
  Pressed ctrl + scrolled with the scrollwheel

  Expected Behaviour:
  The image would zoom in

  Actual Behaviour:
  Nothing, as the image was zoomed out to fit in the window
  OR (if the image was already zoomed in)
  The image scrolled up and down
