For some reason it does not wor at all for me...
Only works on the settings page.
Wish it worked, because the premise is awesome. Unfortunately the only page it actually works on is the 'Scrollbar Anywhere' options page-- it doesn't do a thing anywhere else.
(Had to install it again to write a review, which sucks). This extension blocked all my rightclick popups in chrome, that really sucks. I got to know this only after some days being frustrated by not being able to use any popup menus anywhere. Took me some time to figure out what extension does that. Not recommended to those who still want the full mouse, not half of it.
no horisontal srkoll block draggs page in all diractions instead of vertical
no love for firefox, no updates since 2015
Not sure what's up but I installed it and it is located as an extension in chrome... yet it does nothing. Nothing I do in options works... I'll uninstall and try reinstalling it once. If good I will remove the review or update it. this is a Macbook Pro
Didn't function at all.
Scrolling is too fast and not smooth... i didn't liked it.
It likes to scroll you to the very top of the page while you're holding down the scroll button. More frustrating than beneficial. Oh how I miss Grab N Drag from Firefox.
no good no work
Sorry to say. but it refuses to work no matter what I do. I really loved the app on Firefox, and I have been going nuts without it. I was really hoping for good things, and was utterly let down. It might just be me, but I thought I should yell you.
Since few days ago it's enough to click and release the mouse button and extension will lock in scrolling mode until you click again. This bug causes me to accidentally enter the drag scroll mode all the time whenever I miss clicking something by a pixel. It even locks in scrolling mode when clicking on a youtube video to play/pause it, or anything of that nature. edit: I tried using it like this for a few days but it's practically unusable right now.
Can't click on mail items in GMail. Makes this extension useless.
I can't scroll in places I want to scroll, only places with scrollbars. I would like it better if you could add the ability to scroll in places that have no scrollbars. I can't scroll in Discord areas that require me to scroll so that would be very helpful
Doesn't seem to work on all websites :( Scrolling behavior a little bit "wonky"... Too bad there is nothing similar to "Grab and Drag" for firefox...
Has a major issue -- if there is a link under the cursor, dragging still brings up the context menu, instead of scrolling. This makes scrolling hit and miss, which totally ruins the experience. Can't this be fixed to work like the Firefox version?
Can't scroll in frame (www.gazeta.pl)
Awesome app. Really really useful. Drawback is that it disables some webpages' buttons and other script unusable. When I disable this extension, everything works just fine. If the kinks can be sorted out, this will easily be a must-have extension.
seems to work but at a cost.. right click paste stops working
This isn't a scrollbar anywhere... Because if your cursor is over an image or link it doesn't scroll. You have to move the cursor off of those things for it to work. So it kind of defeats the purpose for me, because if i have the move the cursor any way i might as well just use the browser scroll bar. So if the dev ever sees this, please add an option to enable scroll ANYWHERE. It would also be nice to have a consistent scroll speed option, because currently the scroll speed completely depends on how large/long the page is, so the speed varies from page to page.
Doesn't scroll on some sites (example: mydealz.de)
Please add options to inverse the scrolling direction
Often the scroll bar will scroll uncontrollably.I cannot scroll into video arrows and expandable text boxes (such as reddit and youtube). I'm disabling the extension because of this.
Inferior to other things I've used (Firefox Grab Drag) in the sense that it's acrolling exactly not anywhere. Youtube pages go bonkers, Start to scroll, then shudder uncontrollably. Google main page scrolls opposite. Other sites go bonkers. Either this is old and unmaintained ir it's just bad.
Great app but major flaw is that you cant initiate scolling over links. Webpages are jam packed with links these days so sometimes its actually harder to find an empty space and use scrollbar anywhere than it is to just click on the scrollbar. If this can be rectified though, it will be perfect.
It works well enough, but interferes with a lot of things like selecting from dropdowns. Pretty much every problem stems from it not actually requiring the button to be held down. From the other reviews it seems much more useful for tablet users than PC.
Would often flick back to top. It seems like a bug.
buggy with latest chrome
please make Function - Anti- Use Grab-and-drag style scrolling ! and drag when clicking on URL!
This works, mostly. It's just that it's still got the same quirks and issues it had over a year ago already. Personally, I really don't care for the cursor, as I prefer the default one even when scrolling. And I understand that Chrome's scrolling mechanism works very different from the one in Firefox. But what I still "miss" in comparison to the Firefox "Grab and Drag" add-on, is an option to disable the locking when I just click without dragging. I prefer the left mouse button for this, so this would often lock into the dragging mode when I click things, like media controls or other stuff (don't ask). In addition to that, it still interferes with both highlighting and dragging highlighted text.
