Google Chome browser, scroll with mmb

snowdog · 19 Jun 2011 at 14:32

Hello,

As per title, how do I enable scrolling by mmb like in IE and FF, not the scroll wheel but clicking with mmb and then moving the pointer down or up, I always found this the quickest way to scroll but it seems to be disabled in chrome by default or not existent, any way to enable this? I hate the slow scrolling by the scroll wheel and end up using pg. up and down and home&end.

Works out of the box so to speak on my chrome install

It doesn't on mine, I just installed chrome on a fresh windows install, pressing the mmb does nothing, it does work for opening links in a new tab but it won't scroll...

it works for me no problem, hold it down whilst moving to scroll up and down, or press it once and move the mouse up and down, pressing it again to stop scrolling.

Try a reinstall?

This is the second time I've had this problem, on 2 windows installs, with 2 fresh chrome installs, the only thing I can think of that is the same, is my application data, which I moved over from my last install, but I can't find it (mmb scrolling) anywhere in the settings...

Middle mouse was screwy with v1.01 driver i went back to 1.0 recently and was fine. I know you switched mice now but might be useful for ppl to know who have the same mice we do.
