Title: scrolling goes too far
Post by: jepinto on November 11, 2003, 08:14:00 AM
maybe it's not scrolling.... when I click in the scroll bar, it now jumps a whole page, instead of a bit of a page.  I've got to pay attention to where the cursor is in the scroll bar!

I can't remember if it's a Netscape preference or a system preference. huh.gif

OS 10.2.8, Cube/500 with the pretty clear acrylic with black interior mouse.

Go to "System Preferences"/ "General" and check "Click in the scroll bar", "Scroll to here".

I just work with the arrows Jennie. Helps if they're in the same spot. <gr>

OH Yeah.
The keyboard up/down arrows also, except some sites they won't work.

Aside from DropDrawers, CopyPaste and GoMac which have X versions or similar, two third party apps I couldn't live without in 9 are Scrollability and SnapTo.

Scrollability is usable in Classic but I just found out there is a native X app that does the same.

Don't think there is a X replacement for SnapTo yet.  unsure.gif
