Optikey: Side Scrolling #20

Open SamHodges opened 2 years ago

SamHodges commented 2 years ago

There is no horizontal mouse scrolling in QS, which means the horizontal scrolling in Optikey doesn't work, leaving only the drag scrollbar (which is both slower and more difficult to use).

A potential solution is to just add mouse horizontal scrolling, which should then allow Optikey scrolling to work as intended.

huge +1 to this. This will also greatly help low vision folks who don't use zoom software but wish to zoom in on their code in QS and then require horizontal scrolling.

Nice to have suggestion: a shortcut for scrolling like 80 to 90% of the line, so that voice recognition users that rely on magnification can easily navigate a long line of code without jumping through lots of hoops. Don't scroll 100% of visible line because then users feel lost about if they missed something.

That's a great point! I'll make sure to bring it up in the next lab meeting- it should definitely be possible to implement a shortcut like that. Thanks!
