Touchpad moves scroll point when switching application and scrolling there












0















Laptop: Lenovo Yoga 720. Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. GNOME Shell 3.28.3



Touchpad skips scroll lines when:




  1. Scrolling in First Application (i.e.: in a text box, browser window, etc.)

  2. Switching to Second Application and scrolling

  3. Switch back to First Application and scrolling makes the scroll-point to skip - seems to skip relative to the scrolling amount done on the Second Application.


On the other hand, when:




  1. Scrolling in First Application

  2. Switching to the Second Application and do no scrolling

  3. Scrolling in First Application doesn't get affected.


I have two-finger scrolling setup.



Happens in all scrollable content (text boxes, browser windows, editor views, IDEs, etc...)
