Bad scrolling experience with Jupyter Notebook

[AmmarMujtaba]

Type: Performance Issue

Let's say I am scrolling through a document on a laptop in Jupyter Notebook. When I am moving my fingers on the touchpad, the document is scrolling smoothly with my fingers, but as soon as i stop moving them, the document motion stops abruptly. It should stop with gradual decrease in speed when i stop scrolling, it gives a smoother feeling.

I see smooth scrolling on Windows for notebooks, maybe a linux/mac issue?
Do you have the desired scrolling behavior for a text file?

[AmmarMujtaba]

Yes, Text files have a very smooth scrolling experience. Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/AAb9ysg>
