[Feature Request] Create an Extension Shortcut to turn auto scrolling on or off

[aought-dev]

Description

I'm requesting a feature to turn auto scrolling on or off with an extension shortcut. This is different from the Pause or resume Auto (in which the user needs to switch on Auto first before this shortcut can be used.) I am able to modify the source on my own and add this feature, however with Firefox I'd need to have the modification signed in order for it to work long term.

Thank you!

Hi aought-dev, thank you for making this feature request (and sorry for the delay) ❤️

I've added a new Auto Scroll shortcut in V10, which is now on AMO.

I hope that helps!

Is it possible to make it per-tab?

Hi Alex, sorry for the delay. Shortcuts should only activate on the active tab you're on. If you mean the Auto Scroll settings themselves (the mode and speed), those are saved as global default settings. It's possible to add the two properties to a JSON Save via Options > Saves to have it use tab-specific settings like below, but it will assume it should start auto scrolling. I can add a autoScrollEnabled property in the next version so that way you can safely persist the two auto scroll settings in the UI Window after clicking Accept and not have it start auto scrolling the next time you visit the site.

  "autoScrollMode": "bottom", // or "top" to scroll back to the top
  "autoScrollSpeed": 10
