Don't forget the near religious debate that is scrollbar snapback: skim a document backwards to review an earlier point, or forwards to determine if it's worth further time investment, and then release the mouse button outside the scroll area so that you can snapback and continue where you left off.

Where is this feature available or implemented? I just tried in Chrome and Powerpoint, neither has this feature.

I've never seen an app that didn't have that feature. Chrome included. I don't have powerpoint around to test at the moment. I've been using this feature since the 90s, and I'd miss it sorely if it were to be disappeared.

I try it just now and it works on Firefox & Window's File Explorer.

Somehow I have never discovered this feature. It's brilliant. Thanks!
