Touchpad scrolling is a blunt instrument - for which reason I rarely use it.
Depends on the hardware. On my laptop it's fantastic. Very fine
control indeed can be had with two finger scrolling. Much finer than a
mouse wheel which (in general) goes in jumps of a few lines at a time.
Choice is a wonderful thing but I don't see any way of exercising it re. the
vertical scrollbar in 11.04. I've ditched Unity interface, can't cope with
it - for something that's supposed to be easy to use, I actually found I
reverted almost entirely to keyboard shortcuts as the Unity GUI is hopeless
for navigating a desktop with multiple windows. Also had to switch off the
infuriating habit of full-screening windows if you drag them to the side. If
I drag a window to the side, it's cos I want to see what's underneath!
Why move a window to see what's underneath? Why not just switch to the
window you actually want to see?
Al.
Sometimes if you're referring to something it might be easier to have
the window slightly underneath to the side maybe. I do this on Windows
at work, even with dual monitors (old habits die hard). Is it possible
to tile windows in Unity? (I've not upgraded to Ubuntu 11.04, instead I
moved over to Mint 10 about 5 months ago).
