Installation

Debian / Ubuntu

Download the .deb package below and install it with:

sudo apt install ./capscroll_1.0.0_amd64.deb

From source

git clone https://github.com/netcrawlerr/CapScroll.git
cd CapScroll
./scripts/build.sh
./scripts/install.sh

Known limitations

Scrolling capture relies on simulated mouse-wheel input and frame comparison. Applications with unusual scrolling behavior, animations, or dynamically changing content may not produce perfect results.

This is the first release of CapScroll, and there is still plenty to improve.

Thanks for checking it out.
