- This control panel does three things:
-
- • allows you to specify the the maximum scrolling speed
- (a.k.a. the "throttle".) You can shut off the throttle entirely if you like.
- • enables you to customize the "acceleration curve"
- (time it takes to reach maximum scrolling speed.)
- • gives you the option to scroll in "real time" when dragging the thumb.
- Pressing the option key while dragging the thumb toggles between
- "normal" and "dynamic" drag modes.
-
- System 6.0.5 or later is required.
-
- To use this software, just place it in the System Folder (or the Control Panels folder,
- if you're running System 7.0) and restart your Macintosh. Open the Scrolling control
- panel to configure scrolling speed and acceleration. A "test" scroll bar is provided
- so that you can experiment with the results of different settings.
-
- Note: The "dynamic thumb" feature provided by Scrolling may not work properly in
- certain applications. If you encounter problems when dragging the thumb of a
- scroll bar in a particular application, hold down the option key to temporarily
- restore "standard" scrolling behavior (or turn off dynamic scrolling by unchecking
- the "Scroll With Thumb" box in the Scrolling control panel.)
