en Can't see this "Hand Tool is Scrolling Speed is 1.0 Activated by" pale gray settings text on the dark grey background. Clicking on 'Activated by' to choose right mouse button for example, does not do anything. Hand tool title is misleading as it does not work like a hand tool in Photoshop would or any other app that would have a workplace larger than screen and needed moving around. Coordinating ctrl click (on Mac) with mouse movement is incredibly frustrating. Moving a page in desired direction often results in inertial movement in opposite direction by letting the ctrl go a little bit after finishing the move (to return the mouse back into original place for the next scroll) or the ctrl key release having a delayed registration by plugin.

It works fine. My main issues are that it does not work on the PDF viewer on the Edge browser, which is the primary reason I wanted it. The other major flaw is that it cannot work with just the left mouse button. You should be able to click it on when you need it, use it to scroll with the left mouse button, then if you need to highlight text you click it off and use the left mouse button to highlight text. That is the way it has worked on every other app or program I have seen that has a hand or grabber tool. Most of the time you do not need the hand tool on, only when you are viewing a zoomed document.
