P: smooth scrolling in the Library module + Filmstrip LR Classic and LR

This is something that would make me very happy as scrolling through 17K photos, even with smart previews created, it lags very badly. Even though I have vertical sync turned on, I can see screen tearing.

This is valuable for me as both the macOS and the Windows version of LR Classic struggles with it.

This doesn't seem to be much of a problem with LR (cloud-based) so, maybe, you could integrate the same scrooling technology into the classic version, and make it cusomizable, of course.

In summary, I'd love to see smooth scrolling in action, but the culprit is the lag between scrolling on the mouse and watching the change happen 3 seconds later, which creates a very jarring experience on a 4K monitor.

Thanks for listening, 

Yours truly,

Alessandro.

I have to agree with you; scrolling has always been poky, especially compared to other products. As such, you get my vote.

I was talking about animated vertical scrolling in the library module, sorry if the term seemed generic. I'll be sure not to make it happen again. Anyways, have a good day, take care and Great photos, By the way!

Please post real feature requests only, not these general "I wish Lightroom was faster" posts. Do you honestly think that there is anyone at all at Adobe who says: "I could make Lightroom run smoother and faster, but I am not sure if our customers want that"?
