Details

User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0b; Windows NT 6.0) Build Identifier: Version 2005110708 (1.0b1) How come Safari and IE have smooth scrolling capabilities, and Camino doesn't? One would think that this browser, out of all of them, developed under the banner of "Mozilla Power, Mac Style", would be foremost in incorporating smooth scrolling. After all these years of development, it's the one thing holding me back from dragging Safari into the Trash. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Go to a long web page. 2.Click the scroller.

Dupe of Bug 33966.
(In reply to comment #1) > Dupe of Bug 33966. I disagree. I don't see anything about Camino (or Chimera) in that bug, which was itself duped to bug 174049, which *also* doesn't seem to have anything about Camino or Chimera in it. I *do* think this is a dupe, but haven't been able to find the real "smooth scrolling" bug for Camino. Confirming for now; feel free to dupe appropriately later. cl

Dupe or not, bug 33966 was filed five years ago. Any work done on it since?
You can put user_pref("general.smoothScroll", true); in your prefs.js file (inside ~/Library/Application Support/Camino/), but the smoothness, as compared to Safari, definitely leaves something to be desired. cl
Do we want UI for this? If so, where? If not, can this be WONTFIXed? cl

Let's morph this into what mento hopes to do for Camino for 1.1 ;)

Summary: smooth scrolling → implement pixel-based smooth scrolling for Camino on 10.4
Target Milestone: --- → Camino1.1
Bug 347626: We're probably going to have to back out pixel scrolling for Firefox 2 because it does evil things to sites like Google Maps. We probably won't be able to use it for Camino 1.1 either.
Target Milestone: Camino1.1 → Camino2.0
Now that the whole menagerie's Cocoa, bug 350471 is everyone's bug.
