Description Reinout van Schouwen 2009-01-08 15:41:29 UTC 
Epiphany can do smooth scrolling. This helps with quick orientation after you press Page Down. I'd like to see this in Evince as well.
Comment 1 Sergey Molodtsoff 2009-10-23 21:13:37 UTC 
Another feature would be useful I think is a kind of line showing position of top/bottom border on previous view. For example, if you scroll down a document Evince should show a line (fading out fast) positioned where bottom line of view area was.

Or there should be another way to show where one's eyes stopped before he/she scrolled.

See bug #170871
Comment 3 Jeff Wheeler 2012-05-17 00:21:55 UTC 
Gtk now supports smooth scrolling (included in GNOME 3.4). Evince should be able to support that by masking the scroll events correctly.
Comment 4 Xavier Claessens 2012-10-15 12:07:55 UTC 
Is this bug dup of bug #674098?
Comment 5 Jean-François Fortin Tam 2012-10-16 00:29:33 UTC 
I'd say it is :) the other bug report has patches and more relevant/recent discussions.
