[libreoffice-users] RE: [LibreOffice-users] stop automatic scrolling

I too have seen this a couple of times lately.  I don't remember what I was
doing though.
Windows 7, 64 bit.  I have LibreOffice installed but very rarely use it.  I
use Outlook 2003 (MS Office 2003) for my email.  

I bought a new computer in May of 2012 with LibreOffice 3.5 installed.  The
spell checker didn't work in Writer didn't work.  The only thing the private
shop that sold me the computer could tell me at the time was that
LibreOffice was having a problem and they would let me know when it was
fixed.  This is when I signed on to this list.

Still frustrated, because I can's spell for s**t I demanded 'service' from
the shop that sold me my new computer.  So they generously sold me a copy of
MS Office for $25, a reduction of $10 from their usual price of $35 sold
only with a new computer.

I saw this behavior of the screen scrolling down to the bottom of the
vertical scroll bar (I believe on a web page, or in Outlook 2003, as I
looked on helplessly.

Of course it's possible I was in LibreOffice somewhere looking for a problem
reported here to see if I could see it.  For the last 8 years of my working
career, going from railroading to QA in a small software publishing house,
and then another.  Four years in each.

Greetings,
I am not sure this is a LibreOffice problem.  I have seen it in other 
applications, such as Firefox as well.  I think it is an unstable mouse 
or mouse driver effect.  I noticed it usually occurs when I am hovering 
the mouse cursor in the vertical scroll bar.  I found that clicking 
somewhere in the vertical scroll bar usually stops it.  I haven't seen 
it lately, but then maybe I stopped hovering the mouse cursor in the 
vertical scroll bar.
