If your Windows setting is to move one line for each click of the scroll wheel, it will move one line of text rather than one row of your worksheet. If you don’t have a “precision” mouse or touchpad, each movement will be based on the height of one line of text. Drag the scroll bar and observe that you can scroll with precision and stop anywhere you like-even mid-cell.ĭepending on the mouse or touchpad you’re using, you may not be able to scroll one pixel at a time.Note that you can stop partway through a row without it snapping to the top. Increase the height on some rows in your worksheet, then scroll using your mouse wheel or touchpad.
