I want to use the mouse wheel to scroll vertically for more than 5 lines - up to and including a full page.

I searched for this for a LONG time, and I get answers for EVERYTHING BUT simply how to make the mouse wheel scroll vertically for the number of lines, or alternately, distance, I need.

I think there used to be a direct setting for full page (fine by me), but I can no longer find it.

I use this constantly on other machines, and NEED it here on this one !!!

Thanks!

Se:

You can set one of the mousewheel.*.delta_multiplier_y prefs to a higher value like '9999' do make scrolling a full page possible. You need to set its action pref to '1'. RegExp filter:

  • about:config => ^mousewheel.*(action|delta_multiplier_y)$
  • mousewheel.with_alt.action 1
  • mousewheel.with_alt.delta_multiplier_y 9999
