Smooth scrolling is slowing me down... [message #186258] Wed, 28 January 2004 20:45 Go to next message

In Eclipse (3.0M6), I relly like the feature of the Package Explorer to
"Link with Editor". Unfortunately, on Windows XP, the tree view uses
smooth scrolling and slows me down when I'm bouncing around between files
in the editor. The same thing happens with the Outline View.

Smooth scrolling takes about 1/2 second every time I click on a new file,
search result, Ctrl-K, etc. It's not much time, but does add up. It's
extremely annoying.

I tried using the Internet Explorer Advanced settings to turn off smooth
scrolling for Windows, but that doesn't affect Eclipse.

Is there any way to turn this off?

Thanks,
Torkel

I found the answer. For Windows, you can change a registry entry that
Eclipse uses at startup to determine whether or not to use smooth
scrolling.

(0 = disable, 1 = enable)

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\SmoothScroll

You should open a bugzilla. Not every user likes to go "under the hood" to
fix this type of thing. The way to avoid this in SWT is to
setRedraw(false), then go to the item or whatever, and setRedraw(true)
