Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/65.0.3325.181 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: For as long as I can remember, I've been wanting a way to scroll the viewport back to the very top of a document. What is the expected behavior? Today I had this thought that a nice way to implement this IMHO would be to allow people to double-click on the scrollbar arrows. It avoids adding more clutter to the UI, and since this is only meaningful when there are things to scroll into, it makes sense that this would be tied to the scrollbar. It's probably obvious, but I also mean that double-clicking the "down" arrow would bring the viewport to the very bottom of the document. What went wrong? I couldn't find this feature! :-) Did this work before? N/A Chrome version: 65.0.3325.181 Channel: stable OS Version: 10.0 Flash Version:

As per comment#0 by reporter considering it as a Feature request and marking it as untriaged. Tentatively adding component "Blink>Scroll", please change if this isn't apt. Thanks!

The only issue here would be that users clicking repeatedly on the scrollbars may accidentally trigger the end/home scroll and lose their place - quite frustrating. I don't really see this as an issue on desktop since this shortcut already exists: the home and end keys. Once place this might be useful is on Android Chrome. iOS safari has a feature where tapping the top of the URL bar scrolls to the beginning - we could implement something similar. This is low priority and we don't currently have available resources but I'll leave it open to gauge interest or if some external contributor wants to work on it. |
