Bug Description
Steps to reproduce (Ubuntu 20.04, shell 3.36.1):
1. Enable 'natural scrolling' for the touchpad in mouse and keyboard settings.
2. Open 'Show Applications' -> 'All'
3. Scroll
4. Repeat 2 and 3 with natural scrolling unset
Expectation:
Scrolling 'up' (moving fingers up) moves application icons up with natural scrolling enabled and down with natural scrolling disabled.
Actual outcome:
Scrolling 'up' moves the app icons down (and vice versa) regardless of the natural scrolling setting for the touchpad.
The scrolling behaves as expected when a normal mouse is used (i.e. natural scroll setting of mouse is obeyed).
