I have had that same "uncontrolled" mouse scrolling before. Yes it
seemed to be the mouse driver[s].
Never seen that "light blue" icon before, but I rarely use Windows and
then it is mostly USB mice using default Windows internal drivers, not
drivers from any media or downloads.
I would not want to keep scrolling when I stop moving my mouse. I could
not stand it when it happened that one time.
The only scrolling option in LO seems to be "smooth scrolling", which
seems to be checked as default with my DEB 64 bit install of 4.2.2.1.

I suspect that this is a feature of the mouse driver, and that it
works in a variety of programs.
I have noticed that when scrolling up or down thru a document using
the scroll-wheel of the mouse. Something I do turns on an 'automated'
scroll. I'll notice a new symbol on the screen (light blue and
transparent, if I remember correctly). If I move the mouse pointer to
be horizontal with that symbol, the scrolling will stop. If I move
the pointer above the symbol, the document will scroll toward the
top. If I move the pointer below it, then the document will scroll
toward the bottom.
If I remember correctly, hitting [esc] will kill this 'automated' scroll.

Greetings,
I am not sure this is a LibreOffice problem. I have seen it in other
applications, such as Firefox as well. I think it is an unstable
mouse or mouse driver effect. I noticed it usually occurs when I am
hovering the mouse cursor in the vertical scroll bar. I found that
clicking somewhere in the vertical scroll bar usually stops it. I
haven't seen it lately, but then maybe I stopped hovering the mouse
cursor in the vertical scroll bar.

Hi :)
Have you tried renaming your User Profile yet?
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile
That often fixes weird things that shouldn't happen = particularly if
they haven't always happened and just started mysteriously one day for
no apparent reason (perhaps after adding a new Extension)
Regards from
Tom :)

Good evening
Probably this is a stupid question, but ...
I noticed time and again, that LO starts scrolling and cannot be
stopped, until the end of the file is reached,
when I click below the blue rectacle on the right side scroll bar in
order to get just a little further down.
I have been looking, and searching the help documentation for
"automatic
scrolling" (or similar expressions), but
could not find yet the trick to make LO stop this. (it is really
annoying, when you are taken to place you don't want to go to)
How do you stop, or customize, this behavior.
Thank you.
Thomas
