------- Additional comments from [email protected] Fri Feb 5 14:53:20 +0000 2010 ------- I hate to sound like a jerk, but this is one reason open source can be said to su*k. This issue has been troubling users since 2006, and it's still not fixed. I am on a new, ultra-high-end brand-name laptop with awesome and ample hardware. Installed OOo 3.1.1, turned on smooth scrolling in Writer, and the screen looks like cr*p. I have seen this with EVERY version of OOo Writer on EVERY computer I have owned, including Sony, Dell, Gateway, IBM, Acer, Asus, more. Meanwhile, no version of MSFT Word has an issue with smooth scrolling. And as a professional writer, this is a HUGE problem, because I CAN'T READ THE SCREEN. Perhaps worse, when you disable smooth scrolling, the text jumps horribly at every page break (another well documented annoyance that has been ignored for years). Sorry for the attitude and screaming caps, but the lack of attention to such as basic and fundamental feature is outrageous neglect on the part of whoever is responsible for this FUNDAMENTAL feature. BTW, I do not see this issue on my Linux machines, which means it's "Windows user neglect." --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
