1.2.2

Changed

• Smooth scrolling now uses the active pane's window, including notes opened in popout windows.
• Settings are searchable in Obsidian 1.13 and later while remaining compatible with older versions.

1.2.1

Changed

• The plugin no longer writes shortcut defaults directly to Obsidian's configuration. Reading mode shortcuts can be assigned in Settings > Hotkeys.
• Removed the unused funding link from the plugin manifest.

1.2.0

Added

• Scroll line shortcuts now work in Reading mode.

Fixed

• Trackpad, mouse wheel, scrollbar, and touch input now take control immediately after shortcut scrolling instead of being pulled back by the active animation.
• Upward shortcut scrolling continues when the editor adjusts its viewport internally.

1.1.0

What's new

• Smooth scroll — animate the scroll with easing instead of jumping instantly. Enabled by default. Toggle in Settings → Scroll Line → Smooth scroll.

Details

Smooth scroll uses a requestAnimationFrame loop with exponential easing (catches up ~20% of the remaining distance per frame, settling within ~200ms). Key-repeat accumulates into the scroll target, so holding the hotkey glides continuously rather than queueing discrete jumps.

Disabling the toggle falls back to the instant scroll behavior from 1.0.0.

1.0.0

Initial release

Scroll the editor viewport up or down by a configurable number of lines without moving the cursor. Similar to editor.action.scrollLineDown / editor.action.scrollLineUp in VS Code.

Features

• Configurable lines per scroll
• Keybindings configurable via Obsidian's built-in Hotkeys page
• Continuous scroll on key hold (registered at CM6 level so key-repeat works)
• Uses CodeMirror 6's actual line height for accurate scrolling across all themes and font sizes

Install

Install via Settings → Community plugins, or download main.js, manifest.json, and styles.css from this release and drop them into <vault>/.obsidian/plugins/scroll-line/.

Configuration

Default keybindings: Ctrl+Alt+↓ / Ctrl+Alt+↑ (auto-configured on first install).

Open Settings → Scroll Line to configure lines per scroll.
