Sure, I can just use the autoscroll extension for chrome at the start and it works, for chrome. scrolling requires constant movement of the mouse, there is no 'automatic scrolling' available.Īs you can see that's a lot of missing functionality.

When held, mouse movement behaves like the scroll wheel, e.g.

When clicked it does nothing (well, does what it's bound to do by the DE, an option I'd like to disable as I am fully accustomed to ctrl+v for pasting things).

When clicked or held, moving the mouse up/down from the initial point where you clicked should enable 'automatic scrolling' in that direction with speeds based on how far you moved the mouse, moving the mouse back to the starting point stops scrolling.

When clicked or held, a symbol indicating the starting position appears.

When clicked, it enables 'locked scrolling' so moving the mouse up or down without holding down the button should scroll.

However it does not behave the way I want at all. For any who do not know what autoscrolling is, you can experience it in Chromium with the autoscroll extension (speed set to 3), and in firefox by enabling the 'use autoscroll' option.Įnabling middle-mouse scrolling is not that hard, in fact all I had to do was this: xinput set-prop 8 'libinput Scroll Method Enabled' 0, 0, 1
