AutoScroll Extension

For users on Linux or Mac, the lack of autoscroll can be a big pain. This extension can help!

It supports both sticky and non-sticky scrolling, doesn't scroll on textareas or links, and even has settings to customize various aspects such as scroll speed.

To use it, press (or hold) the middle mouse button, then move the mouse to scroll the page. Alternatively, hold Ctrl/⌘ and press the left mouse button.

It won't work on every page, but it should work on most.


Known bugs:

● You need to refresh the site or restart Chrome before it'll work. You only need to do this once.

● Doesn't work on chrome:// URLs or the Chrome Web Store. It's restricted by Chrome for security reasons.

da lin (ID: 000000ca33230e8e) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/11/2023 相当不错,MAC实现了滚屏。 AutoScroll是一个自动滚动网页的chrome插件。它支持粘滞和非粘滞滚动,不在文本区域或链接上滚动,甚至具有用于自定义各个方面(例如滚动速度)的设置。AutoScroll适用于“单页滚动网站”,要使用它,请按住鼠标中键,然后移动鼠标滚动页面。或者,按住Ctrl /⌘并按鼠标左键。它不会在每个页面上都起作用,但是应该在大多数页面上都可以起作用。
