![]() The choppy scroll might be annoying for a lot of users and that’s why people are moving towards the smooth scroll option. This might not be a huge deal for you but it is a big deal for users who read a lot of long pages. With smooth scrolling, it slides down smoothly, so you can see how much it scrolls. When this feature is enabled, pressing the Page Down button won’t just jump directly down one page. Smooth scrolling is also useful with keyboard shortcuts. Enabling a smooth scroll allows you to scroll like that with your regular wheel scroll. ![]() If you press the mouse scroll wheel, you can move your mouse up/down and the scroll will be very smooth. The best way to describe the smooth scroll is to compare the regular mouse scroll with the scroll when the scroll wheel is pressed. When smooth scrolling is turned on, you’ll notice that the scrolling is a lot smoother and it won’t stop suddenly when you stop scrolling but rather scroll a bit past your scrolling point that will make the scroll a lot smoother. That’s why major applications like Google Chrome have introduced a new feature named smooth scrolling. The usual/normal scrolling is a bit choppier and might stop suddenly. Thanks again.You might have heard the term smooth scrolling on the internet and wondered what exactly is this? If you aren’t sure, smooth scrolling, as its name indicates, is a feature that allows you to scroll smoothly. But as ScrLock works fine, I 'll class it as low-to-no priority for me to debug, and get back to music making. If it isn't how it's supposed to work, then maybe somewhere in the mysterious interplay between my SPLAT version, my project, and my hardware there is some problem. If this is how it's supposed to work, that's kind of obscure. I'm seeing the following: -Left click momentarily: scrolling doesn't lock -Left click and hold, let the loop area play once or twice, then release mouse: scrolling stops when I click, then starts when I release the mouse button -Left click and hold, let the loop area play more than twice, then release mouse: scrolling stops when I click, and stays stopped, even after the mouse is released The third is what I want. ![]() I am left-clicking (and holding) the clip to engage it. Are you clicking a clip to engage it, or somewhere else? Shouldn't have to be this way - the bundled documentation should do the trick.īrundlefly Yes Scroll Lock key is another way, but you shouldn't have to hold the click to keep the other scroll lock engaged (they operate independently) it should latch on a momentary click, and you should have to click the timeline or an empty area of the clips pane to disengage it. If I'd had no internet access today, I might still be facing downtime, or postponing what I wanted to do until I could ask here. It leads to an unneccessary downtime and forays on the stop-start-headscratch-wtf-doh! cycle. I know this sounds petty, but as someone who really tries to consult the online help, the manual (both of which are usually pretty great), google, videos etc before posting a query, I get really annoyed when something so basic is made so obscure. Keeps things organised by topic, from a user's point of view. I personally would suggest mentioning the Scroll Lock key method in the same places that you mention the Left Click Locks Scroll method. While in retrospect, scroll lock is an obvious answer, well a) ymmv as the years go by, fewer and fewer apps I use make much important use of old IBM keys like ScrLock and PrintScr, so they're quite on my periphery and b) if it's so obvious, perhaps it should have been stated - like many other "obvious" things - somewhere higher up in the manual / help file. 1539 of the manual: "The SCROLL LOCK key toggles whether or not SONAR scrolls during playback." Eureka. Now, if I'd already known the answer, and searched the PDF for "scroll lock", you'd have to go to page 1325, which mentions it in a Staff View context, and then finally, if you want to know about non-Staff View, you have to go on to page p. So I searched the Hopkinton PDF manual for "auto scroll." The only occurrences were on page 448 : "To enable/disable auto scroll lock: Click the Track view Options menu, point to Click Behavior and choose Left Click Locks Scroll on the submenu." and something echoing this on page 1739. Again, no mention of the scroll lock button option. The only relevant only advice was to use the Left Click Locks Scroll option there was no mention of the Scroll Lock key. I searched the online help for "auto scroll" and read through all nine hits. ![]() A request to the bakers who deal with documentation - this could have been *a lot* easier to figure out.
