Bug Description

My mouse wheel is properly mapped; it works correctly in most programs eg. Firefox. If I click the Applications menu on the Unity dock, I would expect that using the wheel would let me move up/down through the menu, but it doesn't.

In addition, scrolling via the "drag the bar" method seems a little wonky. The menu appears to have been divided into 2 anchor points, so if I click on the scrollbar and drag up or down, it doesn't scroll smoothly. I can upload a video if this description is not clear.

In addition, no matter how I scroll, I can't get all the way to the bottom: the last row of icons have their bottoms cut off because I can't finish scrolling down,.

Have exactly the same problem. I use a Thinkpad X200 with middle button setup as scrolling with gpointing-device-settings. Scrolling works for most things except for the unity launcher.
Also scrolling by the drag bar is wonky and bottom part of bottom line don't show.

This has been inaccurately marked as a duplicate of #721447. That bug is only pointing out that the mouse wheel doesn't work, whereas this one points out the issue with the bottom line of icons.

@Brian: those bugs are already reported in bug #719616 (can not scroll to the bottom) and in bug #721447 (can not scroll using mouse wheel).
