LibreScroll

Smooth inertial scrolling on Windows with any regular mouse.

2023-07-19.15-53-41.mp4

Instructions

  1. Run LibreScroll
  2. Hold Mouse 3 and move your mouse, the cursor will stay in-place, mouse motion is instead converted to scroll momentum.
  3. Release middle-mouse-button to halt scroll momentum and release the cursor.

Options

Friction

The rate at which momentum decays.

(Units: deceleration per velocity, in s⁻¹)

X/Y-Sensitivity

The horizontal/vertical sensitivity at which mouse movement is converted to scroll momentum.

Set a negative sensitivity to use reversed-direction scrolling, or zero to disable that axis entirely.

(Units: scroll-velocity per mouse-displacement, in s⁻¹)

Minimum X/Y Step

The granularity at which to send scrolling inputs.

This is a workaround for some legacy apps that do not handle smooth scrolling increments correctly.

A "standard" coarse scrollwheel step is 120, and the smallest step is 1.

Flick Mode

When enabled, releasing middle-mouse-button will not stop the scrolling momentum.

Press any button again (or move the actual wheel) to stop the momentum.

Pause/Unpause

Temporarily disable the utility if you need to use the unmodified behavior in another app.

This kills the worker process, which can be restarted by clicking Unpause or Apply.

Apply

After modifying the preference, click this to apply the configuration as displayed.

This kills and restarts the worker process with the new configuration.
