Using Mousewheel to AutoScroll?

ididntknow · 05-16-2026, 06:04 PM

Apologies, I know this has been covered in the past, but none of the changes I made in preferences seem to fix it.

I have the page layout set to flow mode, and I've tried converting files to HTMLZ (which I saw as a suggestion in a previous thread).

Is there a setting where I can click the mouse wheel to allow continuous scrolling, or perhaps this isn't a feature w/in Calibre.

Thank-You!

Did you check the options of (Viewer) Preferences: Scrolling behavior
and (viewer) preferences: Keyboard Shortcuts: toggle autoscroll (ctrl-space is the default)

thank you, TD, I've used autoscroll for the most part in the past, but wasn't sure if you could do so manually with the mouse wheel.

As you inferred, maybe that's not even a function of calibre. Either way, love the app and happy I found this helpful community in trying to find out. Thanks again!
