Anthony Pyles Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Autoscroll is not working properly for me since upgrading to 10.2.1. I have replicated the issue on two different Macs, both running Mountain Lion. Autoscroll is now choppy and very slow, and adjusting the speed in preferences has no visible effect on the scrolling speed for me. I use autoscroll in spurts (when I'm doing a lot of reading) so I am not sure whether this was a bug in 10.2. Can anyone else replicate this? Is there something else I should try to fix it? Thanks in advance! Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Pyles Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 I guess I'm the only one still using autoscroll! I have, though, verified that this is an issue in both 10.2.0 and 10.2.1 (haven't upgraded my desktop yet). Any word on whether autoscroll will be back to normal in 10.2.3? Thanks!

Joel Brown Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Tony - the autoscrolling has been working just fine for me, but I'm not sure about others. Is this consistent in different texts, tools, and fonts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Pyles Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 Altering the font and font size seems to help, but it still scrolls in a very choppy way on both of my macs in multiple texts and tools. Overall the autoscroll speeds seem much slower than in previous versions of Accordance, though if I make the text (very) large I can see some differentiation between the speeds.

Joel Brown Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 How smooth is your normal (non-auto!) scrolling, via a scrollwheel or trackpad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Λύχνις Δαν Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 So I just tried this - I never use it but figured I see. If I leave the preference set to off and then in a pane click auto-scroll. Its nice and smooth. If I select slow, medium or fast in the prefs and do the same I do see noticeable jitter in the movement. This is on 27" iMac running 10.8.3.

Anthony Pyles Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 I'm seeing the same thing Daniel sees when I try it, though with autoscroll off in preferences and then turned on from the gear icon it scrolls very slowly for me. This is on my Macbook, and any two-finger scrolling I do is quite smooth. I did wonder if it was a RAM issue, so I've tried it with more and fewer programs open, and after a fresh restart, all with the same result. Thanks for your help.

Michael J. Bolesta Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I have not used autoscrolling, and according to help, it is an option click on the scroll bar arrows. On MacBook Air, OS 10.8.4, I do not have arrows. System preferences allows the scroll bar to fade if I do not scroll with the trackpad. Interestingly, the scroll bar does not fade in Accordance 10.2.1, but again, no arrows. Is there another way to access autoscrolling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Pyles Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 Michael, The scrollbar arrows were removed across the operating system back in OSX 10.7, if I remember correctly, but you can access it now from the gear icon next to the aA at the top right of a search window.

Michael J. Bolesta Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Thanks Tony. The Help System needs to be revised to reflect this! It still shows the arrows on the scroll bar, and I could not find reference to the gear menu. When I select off for scroll speed, I still can auto scroll at what seems to be medium or fast. All three speeds have some chop to them, but since I did not use the feature before, I cannot comment as to a change with 10.2.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbarklye Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 My problem is not with the auto-scroll, but regular scrolling. It is choppy or not smooth any more. I'm ver. 11.2.3. It seems like it has been choppy since 11.2.2. Is there a way to fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Simpson Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Hi dbarklye, no resolution necessarily, but do you have accordance installed in another account on your computer? (Ah -pic or mac?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbarklye Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I'm using a MAC. No I don't have Accordance installed on more that one account on this computer. I only have one account on it. The problem doesn't make the program unusable, but it's unpleasant for the scrolling to be so choppy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Simpson Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I am having the choppy video issue if I have two accounts with Accordance running. I seem to have fixed it (or at least mitigated it) by always making sure that Accordance is quit in the other account. However, this is clearly not going to work for you. Sorry. I hope someone can suggest something. I assume you have restarted your mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
