Hello,
I have found that keyboard navigation of feeds has become worse and worse with time. At the beginning, I could select an item (say, from the new articles meta-feed) and press my up arrow key (I usually scroll them backwards) to go to the previous item. The previous item would be shown in place (i.e. the feed roll wouldn’t move up or down, if you get what I mean).
After an update a while ago (a few months? a year?) this behaviour changed. The up arrow key would still load the previous item, but now this would move at the very top of the window, which was inconvenient for me because I use the “keyboard scrolling” to just quickly read titles of posts and mark as read what I’m not interested in. With the new behaviour, I had to press the arrow key twice to be able to read the title of the previous item, and then a third time to actually open it.
Yesterday I updated tt-rss again (I hadn’t done it for a month maybe) and now things are even worse: I can’t use the up arrow key to navigate the feed roll at all, now they key would just move the list up and down without opening any item.
Is there a way to go back to the very original behaviour, or at least to the behaviour that was there until a month ago or so?
You can try #headlines-frame.smooth-scroll, #content-insert {
scroll-behavior : auto ! important
};
in
settings => theme => custom (or something like that, i have a non English language)
This disables the weird scroll behavior for me
Thank you for your suggestion. I have tried to add the code, but it didn’t do anything. I have forgotten to specify that I use the combined view (or something like that, I also have a non-English installation), which you can enable in the settings (and which the developer hates, I’ve read )
I was going to create a new thread, reporting a bug with weird scrolling behaviour, but your suggestion fixed my problem. Though changing the css code on our end should not be the solution for every one, so I will post my findings here, maybe it helps fixing the source of the problem.
Usually I switch between feed items using the CTRL+DOWN keyboard shortcut. In the past this worked great for me, but since about ~2 months TTRSS often scrolls way past the headline of the next item, and sometimes TTRSS is even scrolling back to the previous headline instead. This video is recorded only pressing CTRL+Down key: https://imgur.com/a/9nUPhfV
no, not sure at all, just sherlocked it, as it works as intended when disabling smooth scrolling. I am afraid I am not qualified enough to tell the difference in network inspector between “normal scrolling” with “normal images loading” and lazy-loading. Sorry, did not want to bother you.
Sure, if this is possible, should be a good solution. To be honest, I don’t care about smooth scrolling at all, and am rather happy to found a way to disable it using the css code above. It was just wasting time imho
The smooth scroll made it harder (and longer) to skip through articles looking for something that would catch my attention, whereas I can pick up on things as they flash by, the scrolling was more problematic for me, and very recently, it would often, (but not reliably repeatably) scroll just past the headline of an article.
