Description Moo 2017-10-07 23:44:51 UTC 
I have a Zowie EC2-A shit mouse, don't buy it.

When I scroll with the scroll wheel it scrolls very little. I don't know if there are any other mice that are this dumb.

Perhaps it would be good if there was a setting in GNOME Tweak Tool that allowed you to configure the scroll wheel sensitivity to scroll more.

probably a duplicate of https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=734397
Comment 2 Moo 2017-10-08 21:23:38 UTC 
Yes, that's exactly what I want!

P.S Zowie sucks!
Comment 3 Daniel Boles 2017-10-08 21:26:34 UTC 
I wonder if it's possible for this to be addressed at a more general level than only for GTK+ applications, for instance if something at a higher level in the stack can 'multiply' scroll wheel events before *any* program would receive them. While that sounds simple, it also sounds like it could easily break stuff. So, I'll leave it to those in the know to decide whether this should just go to GTK+.

I definitely shan't be buying a Zowie now, if I ever would. :D
