Extension summary

'Easy Scroll' brings you a comfortable articles reading experience with smooth scroll of necessary amount of webpage by pressing an assigned key. Wherever you read an article, just hit the key to scroll. Then it will scroll down properly eliminating any interruption of your reading pace and article's context.

Motivation : Basically, every time I read an article on website, there were some methods to scroll down. Spacebar or PageDown key scrolled too much amount at one use. And on the other hand, DownArrow key or Mouse Wheel took me too many pressing or wheeling. Both of these methods made me frustrated.

Function : By pressing the RightArrow key, you can scroll down a half of your web screen smoothly. The assigned key, amount of scrolling, and scrolling velocity can be adjusted at preference menu.

Works wonderfully for browsing the web but not for pdf. If you could make it work for pdf it would be perfect!

works ok on my Win 11 desktop, but the millisecond control doesn't do anything. I set it a 100 or 800 and nothing changes. for now, I can live with the default setting
