Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/70.0.3538.77 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Load a long page (http://endless.horse/) 2. Fling to scroll down 3. Scrolling stops as soon as the fingers are lifted up the touchpad What is the expected behavior? "Fling scrolling", or "momentum/intertial" scrolling should be available on Linux What went wrong? Fling scrolling either isn't enabled or doesn't work. Did this work before? No Chrome version: 70.0.3538.77 Channel: stable OS Version: Ubuntu 18.10 Flash Version: N/A GTK apps in general offer fling scrolling, but Qt apps don't, from my own experience. I like the behavior on the GNOME Web application, for example. Because I have only seen GTK apps implement this feature, maybe this issue is related to something else wrt. scrolling than Chrome itself.

"Able to reproduce the issue on reported chrome version #70.0.3538.77,latest stable #71.0.3578.98 and latest canary 73.0.3660.0 using Linux 17.10 by following steps as per comment#0. Note: Behavior is not seen in Mac os and Windows The behavior is seen from old M-60 builds (#60.0.3112.113). This is a non-regression issue, hence marking it as untriaged and requesting some one from dev team to look into the issue. Thanks.!"

In my experience, this behaviour has been provided by something outside of Chrome (so I've always disabled it, because if I pressed ctrl while there was still scroll momentum, the page would zoom). |
