Touchpad click, scroll not working when Desktop Zoom is turned on

It’s a bit wierd issue but in GNOME either X11 or Wayland, when Desktop Zoom is turned ON, the touchpad click, scroll not working.

Is it with me only or others also? Please let me know if some new setting is there or how to enable clicks and scroll while using magnifier.

First resolve this, second search for the problem in Github/Gitlab.

Unfortunately, I don’t know which app provides you with this and whether this is normal behavior.
