Smooth scroll in Zathura












2















I am trying to enable the smooth scrolling feature in Zathura. I have the following line in my zathurarc: set smooth-scroll true, but the scrolling doesn't become smooth.



According to the documentation:




smooth-scroll



Defines if scrolling via touchpad should be smooth(only available with gtk >= 3.4).




I have gtk 3.22 installed (which is greater than 3.4, right?) as dpkg -s libgtk-3-0|grep '^Version' gives me Version: 3.22.4-1.



What do I need to do in order to enable smooth scroll? The "via touchpad" part is also suspicious, but I can't get it to work on either a touchpad, a scrollwheel or with the keyboard.



Another suspicious thing is that it does not autocomplete when I type :set sm which it does with other options.

  • can you try setting a verbose error-log level? Maybe that would give you a hint about the underlying problem. Also, have you observed problems with other applications and the scroll-speed?

  • In newer releases of Zathura (0.4.3) the scrolling is now smooth by default. Still no smooth-scroll option.

  • @ILMostro_7: Nope, I don't see anything suspicious with verbose logging and nope, no other applications are behaving strange.

  • @Heilke Walinga: Hmm... Strange! I am running 0.4.3 and the scrolling is not smooth. So... Is it smooth for you, you say?

I use the touchpad and had the same problem. this got it fixed though:



:set scroll-step 50


(you can fiddle with the number to see which suits you the best)






share|improve this answer


























  • Hmm... According to the man page, that should have nothing to do with smoothness, and the default value is 40; I don't see why 50 would make a difference. I have tried it anyway, but that doesn't change the smoothness.

You have to put double quotes around true



set smooth-scroll "true"
