Microsoft Word documents
This is also a thing in Word. I'm editing a book with chapters in the hundreds of pages. My new Dell XPS laptop lacks a pointing stick, the first time I haven't had one since 1993, so I'm learning to use a touch pad. It works fine on long web pages with Chrome or Opera, but in Word when I start to scroll it always scrolls the wrong way for a bit then finally starts out in the right direction. This always results in losing my place, particularly in footnotes. I've tried reversing the scroll, to no avail. My workaround has been to use an external trackball when editing. Has anyone else seen this?
