Smooth Scroll Suggestions

Hello, Andreas. How are you?

Today, while looking for an app that could handle auto-scrolling, I was pleasantly surprised once again by BTT when I discovered that you had already developed this feature.

I wasn't surprised, however, to find that among the dedicated apps I tested, BTT performed the task the best and most smoothly, just as the feature's name suggests. Congratulations and thank you once again.

I would like to suggest, however, two small improvements to the Smooth Scroll action.

In my case, I use it for reading, and I couldn't configure a speed compatible with my reading pace (at least not for the type of materials I read). I'm not sure if I missed something in the settings or if the minimum is indeed "Vertical speed -0.2" (I tried "-0.1" but nothing happened).

Therefore, if there is a possibility to implement other speeds, especially slower ones, I believe it would be fantastic to use as a reading aid.

Additionally, I noticed that there are currently two separate actions: "Start Smooth Scroll" and "Stop Smooth Scroll". I believe it would be very useful to have a third "Toggle Smooth Scroll" action. As the name suggests, this would allow triggering the function with the same settings as "Start", but when triggered again, it would simply stop it.

I hope these ideas make sense.

Thank you.

BTT 6.210 should allow for much smaller scroll speeds!

If you want to toggle, please use the "Cycle Between Multiple Actions" meta action :slight_smile:

Thank you for getting back.

I had no idea the "Cycle Between Multiple Actions" feature existed!

If I update to BTT Alpha 6.210, will this feature (smaller scroll speeds) be available?

yep it’s included in the alpha
