Bug Description

Binary package hint: totem

Every app in Ubuntu interprets scrollng down on sliders as "advance" or "move right". Only Totem works otherwise, which is inconsistent and confusing.

Thanks for your bug. That request has been rejected upstream already, you can read about it on http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=332491. What are the "every app in Ubuntu" you are mentionning? Rhythmbox acts the other way around and upstream pointed a rhythmbox bug about it

Any app with a horizontal slider. Just open an image on EOG, zoom in to make the sliders appear, hover the button over the horizontal one and scroll down.

See what happens? Every other app is consistent with that behavior, save Totem.

up, the image zoon in then

Sure, but I fail to see the relation between zooming in/out and moving up/down/left/right.

I mean, does FFWing a movie in Totem zoom it in or something? How is that related?
