What is this tool?

This Scroll Test Tool helps you verify if your mouse wheel, keyboard arrows, or trackpad scrolling is working properly. It provides real-time feedback on your scrolling performance and lets you compare smooth vs. normal scrolling behaviors.

How to use this tool

  • Scroll up and down using your preferred method (mouse wheel, trackpad, keyboard arrows)
  • Check the real-time feedback to see how smoothly your scrolling works
  • Toggle between Smooth and Normal scrolling to experience the difference
  • Use the jump buttons to quickly move to different sections
  • Monitor the progress bar to see your current position

Test your keyboard arrow keys

Try using your ↑ Up and ↓ Down arrow keys to scroll through this content.

For best results, click anywhere in the scroll area first to focus it, then use your arrow keys.

Test your mouse wheel

Scrolling with a mouse wheel should be smooth and responsive. If you notice any skipping or lagging, you may need to clean your mouse wheel or consider replacing your mouse.

Pro tip: Most modern mice allow you to adjust the scroll wheel sensitivity in your system settings.

Test your trackpad scrolling

Trackpads typically support both two-finger scrolling and edge scrolling. Try both methods to see which works best for you.

Tip: You can usually adjust trackpad sensitivity and scrolling direction in your system preferences.

Smooth Scrolling vs. Normal Scrolling

Smooth scrolling creates a more fluid experience by animating the scroll movement, while normal scrolling jumps directly to the next position. Toggle the switch above to compare both methods.

Common Scrolling Issues

  • Jittery scrolling: Often caused by dirty mouse wheels or trackpad sensors
  • Scroll jumping: May be due to software settings or worn-out hardware
  • Over-sensitivity: Try adjusting your device settings to a comfortable level
  • Lagging: Could be caused by system resources being overloaded
