Scrolling in Glyph panel

[TenTin]

Ps engineers should consider working on the Glyph panel as it is an essential panel for typographers. Scrolling through hundreds of fonts at such a slow speed is frustrating. It would be great if they added a scroll bar to the Glyph panel, similar to the font panel. The panel has a disadvantage due to the absence of a search box, which could allow users to search for glyph names.

Once you start the scrolling by moving your mouse over the up or down arrows, the scrolling will go faster the more you move your mouse further up or down from the arrows.

The Font menu in the Glyphs panel appears to support the three faster ways I scroll through any menu that is taller than the screen in any application:

Trackpad: Two-finger vertical swipe

Mouse: Spin that scroll wheel

Keyboard: Press the Page Up or Page Down keys, switch to up arrow or down arrow key for more precision. Bonus: Home key snaps to the top of the menu, End key snaps to the bottom.

I don’t even click arrows or scroll bars any more in any application…too slow.

I absolutely agree it's clunky.  It appears to work exactly the same as the right click Brush Group list, which has always been a royal pain to scroll through.  I discovered years ago, that having bought up the list and highlighted one of them, that the up and down cursor keys are greased lightning compared to clicking on the triangles at the top and bottom of the list.  In fact it scrolls too fast to read on my current system.

All panels that involve a lengthy list should have search windows.  Or at least the option to start typing the name.

On the Mac side one can just hold the cursor over the arrows in the Font menu and the more the cursor is moved

towards the top or bottom of the screen, the faster the menu scrolls.

Doesn't seem to work that way on the Windows side.

Then it goes like this:

I never use gestures and rarely use the keyboard for scrolling, just mouse wheel scrolling or scrollbar.
I like it (the speed) to be under control, not sluggish, nor like a Ferrari!
