Currently trying out KDE, and I'm a big user of multiple workspaces/desktops while I work. I've noticed that essentially, KDE isn't able (or doesn't bother?) to tell between my mouse's standard vertical scroll, and the left/right scroll that it has. Just FYI, my mouse has a pretty sensitive scroll wheel with no discernible "clicks" so I can easily make my desktop look like it's on crack.
Here's what I'd like:
vertical scroll does nothing when applied on desktop, but left/right scroll causes me to switch to previous/next desktop.
Here's what happens now - per settings for Desktop Settings --> Mouse Actions: Whether I scroll up/down or if I click left/right, I switch desktops.
Thanks for your help
