2003-03-24 is up (only for w32 right now), and yes, smooth scrolling is in.
You can activate in by adding the following line in your user.js:

Code: Select all

user_pref("general.smoothScroll", true);

Smoothscroll, is this like autoscroll?

I don't think it is (I've never used autoscroll, nor will I use smooth scrolling). Smooth scrolling is just normal scrolling (with your wheel mouse or keyboard Up/down), but not line by line. Actually, it's the same scrolling than in MSIE PC.

jmccrary created a new thread about this build, so I'm moving it:

Poo. This build won't even start on Linux. It just thinks for about a second and then stops. I even removed my old profile. Why do I get the feeling that we're converging on 0.6 like a drunk converges on a lamppost?

Am I the only one that thinks working on Phoenix would be much more efficient if we just stuck with Mozilla's stable release for a little bit? Now is when all the Gecko developers are adding all their new ideas to it, since they had to wait until the stable version was released to start any major hacking again. Maybe we should stick with the stable release until development of Gecko calms down again?

Wow, nice scrolling! All of a sudden the browser feels much more professional.

It just feels f*ck*ng damn slow here.
But I know I'm a minority on this subject :)

What is this scroll'ing everyone is talking about....

Phoenix has always been fast at scrolling... atleast on my P4 2.7 GHz, GeForce 4

Hardly think anything has *changed* in this build

Smooth scrolling: when you use your mouse wheel, the page scroll accelerates a bit instead of scrolling the page at the same speed all the time. This gives a nice "polished" feel, even on my old 800 MHz machine.
