Mouse scroll wheel acceleration, implemented in user space

Re: Mouse scroll wheel acceleration, implemented in user space
#2It was also implemented physically in some mouses
for example, Logtiech G502: " Dual-Mode Hyper-Fast Scroll Wheel
Unlock the scroll wheel for hyper-fast continuous scrolling to spin quickly through long pages, or lock it down for single click precision scrolling. The weighty, metal wheel delivers confident, smooth and satisfying control for either mode. "

The G502 is a phenomenal mouse

#6Forgive me if I'm incorrect, but doesn't a user space implementation mean it does not understand to reset momentum between window focus events? So if I scroll like crazy in app1 then Alt-Tab to app2, scrolling carries to app2?

#7Isn't this exactly what the Mac touchpad and the Apple mouse's touch-scroll-wheel do?

It could be designed either way; shared memory could allow current velocity etc to be shared between processes, or it could just not be shared. I haven't checked this implementation to see which it would be

#9I always struggle with the exact opposite problem. Mouse wheel acceleration feels incredibly unnatural to me and I can't turn it off on macOS.

How would that have acceleration?
