Description akel.spm 2022-06-19 11:46:56 UTC
Description:
On Windows 10 (didn't try on the others OS), if I have big lines, when I scroll down with the mouse wheel, instead of having a soft scrolling, which is what I'd expect to work comfily on my files, it jumps off 3 lines, which is extremely unpleasant and disorienting.

Someone on Internet made me noticed it's not the fault of the software, but the fault of the Mouse Parameters on Windows 10. And indeed, I noticed that I can change the numbers of lines it jumped off.
- But 1st, it changes the scrolling of all the other softawres (like Firefox or LibreOffice Writer) definitely too slow
- And 2nd, it doesn't change the fact that if we have a big line, once we jump off it, the scrolling is still too brutal, disorienting, and unpleasant.

Would it be possible to fix that and to suggest a scrolling which doesn't use the Mouse Parameter of Microsoft Windows, so we can't jump off like that, please?
This is really something necessary for me... and probably for the others who use big lines on LibreOffice Calc.

Thank you.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Making big lines on LibreOffice Calc (like 300 pts high)
2. Scrolling with the mouse wheel

Actual Results:
Getting disoriented, with a really unpleasant feeling

Expected Results:
Getting a soft scrolling, allowing us to stop feeling lost.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes

Additional Info:
None, except that from all the features I may find to request, this one is by far the only and most essential for me.

This is a long-standing feature request. Unfortunately, it's difficult to implement. Although many people wish for smooth scrolling in Calc, it may never happen.
