Mouse Autoscrolling

Having the same issues with Autoscrolling with Adobe PDF.  I did find however you can open the Document in CUTEPDF and the Auto works beautifully.

Adobe is not going to fix this issue it seems.

Hi Bill,

I have always used just one simple click and release of the mouse wheel, then just moving your mouse up and down to navigate up and down the page, stopping and starting exactly where I want on the page instantly, and moving up and down the page at exactly the speed I want. I am always shocked when I find someone else who doesn't use this all the time, it is just, brilliant!! It works on every single website, web page, everywhere in Microsoft Office, absolutely, every, single, thing, EXCEPT Adobe reader! Truly unbelievable that they STILL have done nothing at all about it!, it is such an unbelievably useful function, I use it constantly on every web page/whatever I am using. I can see that you submitted one of those request forms to Adobe 3 1/2 years ago now, in May 2020, and they have done nothing at all about it, just wondering if anyone else knows any way to get around this problem at all. Thanks so much for raising this problem Bill.

++UPDATE

I just discovered that the mouse autoscrolling  feature works in Adobe Acrobat Pro DC but partially.

When I am editing extensive lines of code in a field, this mouse autoscroll feature seems to only work in the  javascript editing windows, like for example, in the custom calculation script section of a field object.

So like you suspected, I agree that this is  a bug.

++UPDATE

I was able to get it to work in all of my Micrososft Office applications and in all of  my installed web browsers. Acrobat still shows the same inability.

Your suggestion works but it is difficult to control.  All of my other software allows me to use the mouse wheel and control the speed and stop the scroll by moving the mouse.  Why does Adobe not follow what appears to be somesort of a standard?

I can use the mouse wheel and as long as I hold it down the document scrolls.  I can move the mouse and the document will speed up or slow down.  When I hold the mouse wheel down a hand icon appears with four arrows.  When I release the mouse wheel the scrolling stops.  To me this is better and easier to control than the automatic scrolling. 

I have a Logitech mouse.  I discovered that if I use the Logitech software and select the mouse wheel to auto scroll than Adobe works as I want.  The problem is some of my other software stops working, not sure why.  I tried a Dell mouse, which came with the PC, it performs the same way, but does not have the software to control the mouse wheel. 

I could be wrong but I don't think Adobe has always acted this way.

Hi,

Hit CTRL+SHIFT+H in your keyboard. This will activate the Automatically Scrolling feature. The you can use the mouse wheel to scroll up or down or pause the automatically scrolling of the document pages.

Use the up and down arrow keys to control how fast or how slow you want the pages to scroll.  

Pressing the "-" (minus sign key) once  by itself will reverse the scrolling backup and pressing it again to scroll back down.

Hit the "Esc" key to stop the automatically scrolling.
