Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/49.0.2623.75 Safari/537.36 Example URL: Any web page Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Open a web page 2. Scroll it with the wheel 3. What is the expected behavior? The page should scroll without smooth movements. What went wrong? Many of us really *hate* smooth movements because they make us sick, affecting seriously our productivity. Smooth scroll should not be enabled by default or at least it should be enabled/disabled with a check control in the user settings area. Does it occur on multiple sites: Yes Is it a problem with a plugin? No Did this work before? Yes Until version 49 Does this work in other browsers? N/A Chrome version: 49.0.2623.75 Channel: n/a OS Version: Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 20.0 r0 I know there is a #disable-smooth-scrolling flag that works ok. But as a flag, it could disappear in any moment so the user who get sick with those smooth movements will lost the possibility to disable smooth scrolling.

At this time the decision is to not add a user setting, though we will monitor feedback. On Windows and Mac there is an OS setting that we respect, but on Linux the only way to disable is about:flags.

Nice if the flag if there forever, but acording to Peter Kasting the flag will be removed in a few versions. So it *will* be for sure a problem. |
