243319 - When pressing space scroll the message pane only a half page down

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, enhancement)

Description

[Peter Kronfuss]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8
Build Identifier: Thunderbird version 0.6 (20040502)

When reading many messages i navigate through all the messages by pressing the
space bare multiple times. The main message pane scolls one complete page down
when space is pressed. It is hard to see where you stopped reading (before
scrolling) if the message is very long. So it would be nice (even better if it
is configureable) if the message pane only scrolls down half of a page if you
press space.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a folder with messages in it
2. Read the messages by pressing the spacebar multiple times

Actual Results:  
The message pane scrolls down for a complete page

Expected Results:  
The message pane should only scoll down for half a page

you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
