ebroom2014 <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #1 from ebroom2014 <[email protected]> --- I was able to confirm. I am using version 4.1.2 on a Windows 10 PC. Replication: 1) Open test document given in zip file in both AOO Writer and in Microsoft Word 2016 2) Select "Smooth Scrolling" in AOO from Tools > Options > OpenOffice Writer > View This step is optional. The smooth scrolling does not work and has been confirmed to not work from these other bug reports: https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=94414 and https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=124240 3) Try scrolling. I used a mouse and also a trackpad. The page scrolls less smooth in AOO Writer than in Word and when you scroll, the document is fairly unreadable. It took 4 mouse scrolls to traverse a single page in Word, up to the page break, as opposed to the 2 mouse scrolls that it took to traverse the same page in Writer. So, yes, the scrolling is faster in Writer. There are many people who are not a fan of this aspect of the program. The scrolling seems to be a bigger problem for people in AOO Calc: https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=81122 https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=81907 Smooth scrolling has been shown to be broken, and people have raised concerns about this. People obviously do want a smooth scrolling feature. Also, there have been irritations about AOO's scrolling speed based off of other bug reports. While this is minor detail of the program, it does seem to go against the user expectations of how a program like this should scroll. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the issue.
