Hello, I have a Chromebook and on that Chromebook I downloaded Firefox for Android and Firefox Preview. In both of these apps, when I try to scroll on my touchpad (two fingers swiping up or down) I just end up highlighting text. When I plug in a USB mouse, I am able to use the scroll wheel to scroll. Any idea how I can fix this?

Thank you!

Hello chatter4500! I'm very Sorry you have the Problem where you can't scroll with your Touchpad. I have seen that problem on GitHub (just like you) and Reddit and I think you can probably try to completely close and then reopen Firefox. Please tell me if that worked and, Stay Safe!

Hi Tommy, I tried closing and reopening Firefox for Android and scrolled on this very webpage but it's still highlighting text. Since this is a known problem I don't think there's much for anyone but the Mozilla devs to do. Thank you.
