message PointerSettings

[mouse] and [touchpad] in lava.conf, and [render] scroll-easing: how the pointer moves and how a scroll feels.

The mouse and touchpad halves are the same settings twice because people want them different — a natural-scrolling touchpad beside a wheel that scrolls the old way is the common case — and libinput keeps them per device anyway. Settings a kind of device cannot have (a mouse taps on nothing) are sent and stored all the same, and simply not applied.

Fields

disableWhileTyping: boolean

Not documented.

idl/lava.npidl:1156

idl/lava.npidl:1167

hasTouchpad: boolean

Not documented.

idl/lava.npidl:1168

"adaptive" or "flat".

idl/lava.npidl:1150

mouseNaturalScroll: boolean

Not documented.

idl/lava.npidl:1151

libinput's scale, -1 (slowest) … 1 (fastest); 0 is its default.

idl/lava.npidl:1148

scrollEasingMs: i32

How long a wheel scroll takes to settle, in ms; 0 is none, each notch landing in one frame.

Read-only: LAVA_SCROLL_EASING is set in the compositor's environment and wins over scrollEasingMs, which is still saved.
