Clockwise movements to scroll down, anti-clockwise to scroll up.

All this time I’ve been using simple vertical movements on trackpads, just like using scroll wheels on mice, and found the scrolling behavior to be rather odd many times. Thankfully, I needed to tweak my controller layout settings for a specific game, whereby I took a glance at the trackpad settings. And that’s when I finally saw the clockwise labels for vertical scrolling. Now that I actually know how to use it the PROPER way, it feels SO MUCH smoother and actually more satisfying than using a scroll wheel on a mouse.
