Quick view of Page contents

[JoeG]

If I recall correctly, at one time I knew a key/mouse combination that would
allow you to quickly see the contents of the pages in a section by simply
mousing over the page tabs. You didn't have to click on each page tab in
order to see the page.

Trouble is, I cannot remember how to do this.

Anyone know how to do this?

There used to be a "thumbscroll" feature in ON2003, where you could click
on a Page tab and drag up and down to view all of the page contents as if
you were thumbing through a paper notebook.

That feature was removed in ON2007, presumable to enable drag and drop
moving of pages. You obviously can't have the same UI action trigger two
different results.

Ctrl-PgUP and Ctrl-PgDN remain as the way to quickly move back and forth
among the Pages of the current Section.

Hold down Ctrl and scroll with the mouse wheel does the same thing for me.

Control + Scroll with mouse wheel is for zooming.

-- Thanks Erik. That explains it then, 'cause I'm now using 2007. I didn't
know about Ctrl-PgUP and Ctrl-PgDN. Thanks for the tip.

Control + Scroll with mouse wheel is for zooming.

It's cursor position dependent.

If your cursor is held over the page tabs (or the section tabs), Ctrl +
Scroll with the mouse wheel quickly scrolls through the pages of the current
section.

If your cursor is held over the page content, Ctrl + Scroll with the mouse
wheel zooms the page in and out.

I'm sure we've been through this before in a previous thread.

Yeah I think so, I've never seen cursor dependent mouse wheel
function. I guess the logical step is why not carry this cursor
dependent mouse to the right hand pane - section groups.

Is your mouse set to scroll "one page at a time"? Is it possible that the
mouse sends the pageup/pagedown keystroke in addition to the scroll commands,
so both work?
