Description: I just got a new computer with Windows 10 (I had Windows 7 before this) and when I installed LibreOffice on it I was disappointed to find that inertia scroll on the track pad doesn't work. I've tried both the most recent version (6.1.2) and the one I had on my last computer (6.0.6.2) which was running Windows 7, where it worked fine. I'm not sure if "inertia scroll" is a commonly used term. What I mean is that now I have to scroll many, many times to get to the top or bottom of my document, where before I could do a few scrolls and then it would just keep coasting. This feature works fine on other programs on my computer (e.g. with Google Sheets) so I don't believe it's a system specific problem (e.g. drivers). I need it especially for Calc but I see that it also doesn't work in Writer. The reason I need it is for when I select a block of cells in Calc that spans many pages, so I can re-sort the rows by different criteria without including my five header rows. I usually select a cell at the bottom corner and then scroll all the way to the top (almost the top, but not the header rows), hold down the shift key, and then select the cell at the diagonally opposite corner of that large block of cells. Since not all the cells are filled, using the <ctrl><shift> and arrow keys is a little less convenient. Steps to Reproduce: 1.scroll with a trackpad, several times in a row, using a quick flick 2. 3. Actual Results: The document scrolls down a small chunk for each scroll and comes to a complete stop after each scroll. Expected Results: The document should have kept coasting for awhile after those few scrolls, so that I can actually go to the end of the document. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes OpenGL enabled: Yes Additional Info: This is a description of coasting that describes what I used to have in LibreOffice and don't have anymore: There's a certain "momentum" to scrolling that is entirely dependent on how quickly you flick your fingers (or mouse) to scroll; slow scrolling motions have almost no momentum to them at all, while fast flicks mean the screen continues to scroll long after your fingers/mouse have left the tracking surface, possibly even scrolling all the way to the top or bottom of what you're scrolling through in a matter of seconds. This may not be related but I've also noticed that LibreOffice seems to be slower on my new setup, taking longer to open files.
Correction. Only applies to scrolling with trackpad. Ignore references to mouse.
