Extension summary

WIP Edge Scrolling Extension, When your cursor is within a certain distance of any edge (100px) the page will scroll for you. Closer to the edge the faster it scrolls!

This is currently Work In Progress and will soon acquire a settings panel with some customiseable options.

To disable edge scrolling simply disable the extension!

User reviews

Doesn't work. Awesome theoretical concept though. I will definitely rate it higher if it gets to work. Waiting...

This extension is like the Matrix's red pill - once you get used to it, there's no going back. You will miss this feature in EVERY other program that has a scrollbar. Intuitive scrolling is part of the preparation for mice, touchpads and touchscreens to give some control to gaze trackers. Accessibility is not for the disabled. However, this addon doesn't work in the app store and extensions list, or any scrollable areas that aren't the whole page, and it doesn't have settings such as activation area width, barely-activated and full-force scroll speeds, activation delay (to jump between the page and the url bar without scrolling), nor does it have an equivalent firefox addon.
