           Summary: scroll wheel desktop changing behaviour should be
                    reversable
           Product: Xfce
           Version: 4.2.0
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Medium
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: xfce-bugs at xfce.org
        ReportedBy: sofar at lunar-linux.org


The scroll wheel desktop flipping direction (up=left) is counterintuitive to a
large group of people, who consider UP an INCREMENT. as desktop 1 is a lower
number than 2, they would prefer that an UP scroll wheel event should result in
the desktop being changed to the RIGHT.

This is a fundamental breakpoint where people cannot get used to an interface
property. I hope you guys can consider it seriously. I love xfce4 but after
using it since ages this is still one of the things that confuse me! I would
most definately swap the behaviour if I could, thus... please make it swappable.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. 
2. 
3.
