Could you add an option for screen edge scroll?
« on: January 19, 2023, 04:06:54 pm »

I'm disabled and my hand is too weak to push the middle-mouse button. I use screen edge scroll on any games that have it and it's great. I love Dwarf Fortress, but it's physically difficult for me to enjoy the game.

Is that when you move the mouse to near the edge of a window and it automatically scrolls until you move it back? 

Tarn has tried to be pretty accommodating of accessibility needs in the past so I imagine he'd be up for at least looking into it, but who knows what time frame. For quicker help you might want to try editing the keybinds to move the viewscreen with the keyboard. I don't like the middle button for moving and find the keyboard easier in most cases.
