Worksheet scrolling delay | Scrolling through a normal worksheet for an extended period of time (scrolling past more than 10+ rows) leads to the viewer starting/stopping scrolling. The viewer will scroll for about 10-15 rows, and then even as the user continues the scroll gesture, it stops. This occurs in either direction, does not appear to be dependent on the number of rows/columns and seems to be a new issue since internal version 4. |
