The scrolling with middle mouse button is not working when set to this behavior in view options. Nothing happens after clicking and dragging middle mouse button on the drawing area. If the issue was solved it would be a lot easier and faster to create drawings.

Rather an enhancement then a bug. I see the use case (don't use it myself, but it's a valid request).

Kind regards,
Joren

Is working for me... except not working because unusably fast, worsening migraine, and giving no control.

Tools > Options > View > Middle mouse button = Automatic scrolling

When a shape is being selected the middle mouse duplicates it to the current position (otherwise, if nothing is selected, the clipboard is pasted). I don't see any scrolling. And as a Linux user I wouldn't expect. But since there is the option I'd say it's a bug.

Setting to normal.

To reflect the two reports I just duped to this, it would make sense while fixing this non-working feature to ensure that in Draw it works like panning: in both x and y axes.

Update 2022:  This option still non-functional.  Tested in following builds:

Version: 6.0.7.3
Build ID: 1:6.0.7-0ubuntu0.18.04.11

Version: 7.3.5.2 / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 30(Build:2)
CPU threads: 16; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Ubuntu package version: 1:7.3.5-0ubuntu0.22.04.1

Behaviour Expected:
Middle click + drag will pan/scroll canvas, as in other programs such as Inkscape, Scribus, Krita, Gimp, Natron, etc.

Behaviour Observed:
Middle click has no effect.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Set option: Tools > Options > View > Middle mouse button = Automatic scrolling
2. Close and relaunch LibreOffice Draw.
3. Middle click and drag on canvas.
