Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

The default behavior of touch scrolling on a title in a library on the Steam Deck seems to confuse and/or frustrate some users.

When scrolling, it will "spring" back to the top.

This behavior changes to a more expected behavior if any of the buttons "Activity", "Your Stuff", "Community", or "Game Info" are touched. Then scrolling doesn't spring back.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

Click on a title in the library.
Touch the screen and flick upwards, to scroll.
The screen will return to the default state after a brief moment.

Hi @psymin,

I have been unable to reproduce the issue you reported above on the latest Stable SteamOS release (3.5.19). In all instances the the Game Details Page remained at the correct position when scrolled and never "sprung" back up.

Would you be able to confirm if this is still an issue that is affecting you?

Thanks.
