Summary0022077: Menu scrolling reversed in Linux build.
DescriptionWhen using the scroll wheel in menus the scrolling is reversed in the Linux build. The in-game zoom function is also reversed but can be fixed using the Invert Mouse Zoom option in settings. Tried with multiple mice, behavior is not consistent with host OS or other games/applications.
TagsNo tags attached.

They report that it was fixed in a newer version of unity than we are using (2019.3.0: that has other bugs that are not in our current version of unity): https://unity3d.com/unity/whats-new/2019.3.0

Another user reports that they still have it in version 2019.4.13f1: https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/issues/linux-input-dot-mousescrolldelta-returns-reversed-values-in-linux-player

I have not felt comfortable updating to the newer unity versions yet, but will probably look into that in the spring. They've had a lot of regressions that I don't want to inflict on everyone, when this is the only known issue that I'm aware of on our current unity version on any unity build. It's very frustrating that they don't have cleaner new builds.

Still an issue for me at least. I can at least set the "reverse scroll wheel direction" option you had the foresight to add, but that also reverses it in menus. Still better then having zoom reversed, but it would be nice if both could be correct. :)

Thanks!

* Added a new "Invert Mousewheel UI Scrolling" setting to the HUD section of personal settings:
** Description: Normally when you spin the mouse wheel forward, any scrollable areas you are hovering over in the UI go up; spinning backwards goes down. This lets you flip that functionality. OR, in the case that your hardware or OS is inverted for whatever reason, this lets you correct it to work like everyone else.
*** Note: if you also want/need to invert how your mouse wheel works when zooming the game view, then be sure to also set the 'Invert Mouse Zoom' option in the All Cameras section.
** We also updated the other setting to also mention this one, so that if you find one of them you can find them both. We left them as two separate settings since some people might want one and not the other if this is a personal preference and not the "backwards linux mousewheel" bug.
** We thought that this was something we could not fix without unity taking care of it on their end, but we took a peek at some of their old decompiled source code and found an efficient way to find all of the objects that need reversed scrolling and update them in cases where that is indeed needed.
