Description

How many times have you scrolled the webpage a certain distance and suddenly want to "peek" at sometime at the top or bottom of the webpage without losing your current scroll position?

If I scroll back to the top (or bottom) of the page to review part of the webpage, there is no guaranteed way to return to where I was.

On Windows systems, this is easy because when dragging the scrollbar using the mouse, if you keep the mouse button held down, and move the pointer sideways for about 100 pixels, the scrollbar goes back to its location before being dragged, and the webpage with it.

Mac systems have not implemented this super useful behavior, but with this extension you can now have a similar feature too.

To quickly scroll to another part of the webpage and easily jump back to the current position, simply drag the scrollbar to the desired part of the webpage, and without releasing he mouse button, drag the pointer away from the scrollbar at least 100 pixels away and then release the mouse button.

Limitation:
For performance reasons, only the top level scrollbar is supported. For scrollbars inside subsections of the webpage, it isn't supported.

For a discussion on this behavior, please see this thread:

What has inspired us?

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
