Add smooth scroll in whole LO suite. There were no report for this request, so I open it.
scrolling with libreoffice 5 on windows 10 looks horrible right now.
The scrolling in calc is done by jumping 36 lines (I'm on Kubuntu) and 20 lines in Writer. It's not very practical. To read on Google, the problem seems systemic to LibreOffice and OpenOffice.
Oh, how wish smooth scrolling was present in LO...
The extremely choppy/clunky scrolling was the first thing I noticed upon installing & trying out LibreOffice. Trying to navigate a document on a laptop with touchpad gestures is *MUCH* more cumbersome than Office. Fingers really crossed this gets addressed at some point...
Just a note for people, this meta bug-tracker is for the feature of smooth scrolling (meaning scrolling by pixels instead of lines of text or rows of cells). For issues with performance while scrolling (lag, choppiness, high CPU usage, etc) please use Bug 146014. Thank you.
Please add smooth scrolling to LO, I frequently use this software for class presentations and this functionality would greatly improve the experience
How scrolling currently works: Jumps a set amount of pixels at a time, and varies time between making these jumps to adjust scrolling speed. I haven't seen this archaic style of scrolling for honestly decades outside of LibreOffice. How scrolling should work: Moves viewer on every frame (e.g. 60fps for a 60hz monitor) and adjusts number of pixels traveled based on scrolling velocity. Hopefully would allow precise movements of any size if hardware supports it. In my opinion this should be the number one priority for development after critical bugs. It is unbelievable how bad this. It is genuinely hard to keep track of where I am in the page in some situations. I would suggest changing the severity to Major.
