Not quite. Scroll button lock works as a lock on on-button scrolling - pointer movement events get translated to scroll events. When you stop moving, it stops scrolling. (Like on-button scrolling, it's mostly for non-mouse devices that don't have a wheel, like trackpoints and some trackballs, and it comes with severe downsides, like always needing to double-middle-click if you actually want to middle-click something.) Windows-style autoscroll (which this issue requests) works by distance, not movement - we lock in the position where the click occurred, then scroll with a magnitude relative to that position (not the change in that position). So if you move the pointer a few pixels down, it will move very slowly, and continue to scroll that way as long as you don't move the pointer. If you increase the distance, it scrolls more quickly, but again keeps scrolling at that speed unless move the mouse. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
