ContextScroll 0.3.0 improves browser reliability and autoscroll feedback.

Highlights:

  • Refreshes stale pointer context through a bounded 60 ms acknowledgement handshake, avoiding intermittent no-op middle clicks without adding a fixed delay.
  • Keeps generated wheel events anchored to the page so upward scrolling cannot reach Chromium's tab strip.
  • Moves the visible GNOME autoscroll cursor with physical mouse displacement and restores the real pointer to its final position when scrolling stops.
  • Locks clearly vertical or horizontal gestures to their dominant axis while preserving deliberate diagonal scrolling.
  • Expands protocol validation, reliability tests, and security documentation.

GNOME Wayland users upgrading from an older extension version may need to sign out and back in once so GNOME Shell loads the updated pointer bridge.
