1. is very unintuitive and can lead to unintentional consequences and confusion. 

3. would be a question of how much initial scrolling is enough and that would also very much depend on things like screen resolution, dpi, ...

2. would seem a logical choice. I would implement it as a preference in Appearance->Layout, that would also have the advantage of being profile specific, which would allow people to easily revert by deleting the profile.

Hi,

I recently opened an issue on GitLab regarding increasing the scroll rate for larger captures (https://gitlab.com/wireshark/wireshark/-/issues/18213). I was considering between a few alternative implementations, and would like to get your opinion on this. They are:

1. Adding a hotkey that when pressed, increases the scroll speed by a multiplier

2. Adding a new field to the config that allows one to specify a constant multiplier on the scroll speed

3. Making it such that the scrolling speed automatically increases when it detects continuous scrolling (not sure how feasible this one is)

Thanks in advance!

Regards,

Brandon Foong
