Title:
Chrome/Chromium/Firefox doesn't auto scroll when selecting content
downwards
Status in Chromium Browser:
Unknown
Status in Mozilla Firefox:
Confirmed
Status in Ubuntu GNOME:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When trying to select a long text, that goes downwards in the screen, it
won't auto scroll.
Seen's the same thing as
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/744580 but I don't think
it is a problem in the browsers, since it affect all of them. My guess is that
it's a Gnome bug that won't allow the mouse going out of the text area. I don't
know if it's relative, but in programs that have a bar in the bottom, it start
scrolling right after the pointer touch it. So my guess is that Gnome isn't
allowing the pointer to go a bit deeper out of screen's edge, which is common
in Windows for example. Maybe because of the pressure thing that brings the
messages bar up. I didn't had this problem with Unity for example. If the
screen is unmaximized, then it works normally.
