The "page down" key goes too far down - how can I adjust it?

When I'm scrolling through an article or webpage and hit the "page down" key, the jump down is too far and I have to scroll back up a couple lines to see what it missed. Is there a way to adjust that?
Thanks.

Are you zooming the page or have adjusted default font sizes?
It is possible that this affects the behavior of scrolling as this can be a fixed amount of pixels.
Look at these prefs (see about:config) to set the scrolling behavior with the keyboard.
*toolkit.scrollbox.horizontalScrollDistance (5)
*toolkit.scrollbox.verticalScrollDistance (3)
*Bug 635645 - consider increasing the amount of scrolling performed by using the arrow keys
*Bug 725700 - Keyboard arrow keys and scrollbar buttons should have consistent scrolling distances

  • I use high contrast mode (am visually impaired); just upgraded to 8.0. When I open a new tab, the background does not high contrast, showing white until the page loads. Is there a setting that can be adjusted to fix this, or is this permanent?

    I use Windows Vista, and I use the default Alt+Shift+PrtScn high contrast mode for white text on a black background. I only notice when I click a link that opens a new tab or open a tab via the mouse wheel that becomes the main tab. I can't switch tabs fast enough if I click a link that doesn't open as the main tab to tell if the problem persists. The duration of the non-high contrast background is only as long as the page takes to load. There does not seem to be much lag, but the lack of high contrast is painful enough that I have to close my eyes, so I'm not sure. On a related note, the new status information does not high contrast either, making it impossible for me to read.

  • My firefox window while it is open no matter where i am start shaking and i can't push buttons to the page i am (it doing it everywhere), how can i solve this?

    it is really annoying trying to get in a page for fun or for shopping and start this, it doesn't matter if i reload the page, it just make it. By the way, i am having window 7 ultimate 64 bit, does that have to do with?

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Page down - how can I test it?

    My page has been taken down due to bandwidth excess, but I'd like to test run it so that it`s ready for uploading when the time comes. I want to ccheck that the links work, etc. Sort of like an offline version of it, but just like it would work when its online.
    I only see the 'visit' button option, but this is no good. Any way to do this?
    I'm specially interested in seeing it the paytagger code was added, and it works, etc.
    thanks

    just publish to a folder! but that will make some features that are only on .mac available deactivated. but this is how you can check your links and paytagger!

  • The page's retainAM=N and addBreadCrumb=N, how can I change that?

    Thanks in advance for your help.
    I create a timecard summary page, it is totally custom page. It is working fine, but after I go to detail page and go back to summary page, I get error says the session is not existed any more. I found some weird thing here: when I first open the summary page, before doing any search, the url is:
    OA.jsp;jsessionid=9de04232194c40b88c50c96da371955d?page=/trn/oracle/apps/hxc/selfservice/tcsummary/webui/TrnTCSummaryPG&transactionid=1095637727&oas=xmc7FmfqD-QfJOFT7_jJ4A..
    After I did some search in the same summary page, the url changed to:
    OA.jsp?page=/trn/oracle/apps/hxc/selfservice/tcsummary/webui/TrnTCSummaryPG&searchType=search&fwkQBSearchTypeSource=/trn/oracle/apps/hxc/selfservice/tcsummary/webui/TrnTCSummaryPG__QueryRN__809&_ti=1095637727&retainAM=N&addBreadCrumb=N&oapc=3&oas=KAVOq6RdapZmuORKQeDPiA..
    But I have never explicitly set retainAM=N and addBreadCrumb=N, and the __QueryRN__809 is weird too, could you give me some suggestion how I can resolve this problem? Thanks!
    -Bill

    Can you please check the logic that gets executed when you go back to summary page from the detail page. If the link is handled using a URL, then using personalization you can change the URL to include retainAM=Y.
    Otherwise if they are doing so in code, then you can extend the controller and incorporate the additional changes therein. Just make sure all other logic in the seeded controller is executed. Only the JSP forward part is slightly modified.

  • With recent upgrade to 7.0.4, I can barely see the screen as the background on everything is too light.  How can this be fixed or how do I unstall this upgrade?  It is almost impossible for me to use my phone now.

    I am barely able to see anything on my phone, texts, emails, etc with this recent update to 7.0.4  How do I fix this or uninstall this recent update?

    Thanks for the response, but it doesn't help.  The icons in email are barely legible as is the keyboard for email and texting.  Even reading your response on the phone was an issue.

  • When I use the "snapshot tool" some images are very light. how can I adjust the brightness....

    I have windows 7 and Acrobat X Pro.
    When I use the snapshot tool I cannot figure out how to adjust the brightness on that image? On my old computer a picture tollbar would pop up. A lot of images are very light and I need to darken them.

    My not be much you can do. However, I would just clip them into my favorite image tool (in my case IrfanView) and adjust there.

  • How can I adjust the font size, etc., when completing a PDF form in Preview?

    I would like to use Preview to fill-out or complete a PDF form.  The default font that Preview uses when I begin typing in a field is too large.  How can I adjust the font size.  And while I'm asking, can I also adjust the font color, weight, emphasis, etc.?

    Whilst in the Preview application, press "Shift - Command - A" (⇧⌘A) simultaneously to show the markup toolbar, or click View, and select "show markup toolbar". There is an icon "A" near the right hand side of the now visible markup toolbar, click this icon to reveal all the font options. 

  • My Firefox has JUST started jumping to the BOTTOM of a web page when I hit either the Page Down key or the Down Arrow, WHY?!?

    I am running Windows Vista Home Premium, Service Pack 2. Today my Firefox started jumping to the BOTTOM of a websites page INSTEAD of going down one screen at a time like the Page Down key has been doing (on any browser I have ever used).

    You may have switched on caret browsing.

  • Firefox 4.0 - scroll wheel shrinks text rather than scrolling the page down

    On some web pages, when I use the scroll wheel on my mouse to scroll down, the page text shrinks, as if I'd done the appropriate gesture on a mobile browser. Reversing the scroll wheel direction enlarges the text. Moreover, the page down key seems to switch me to another tab, rather than moving down in the same page.
    I first thought that the scroll wheel problem does not affect all pages. However, it now seems that it has stopped misbehaving. I just went back to a firefox window containing a page I thought had misbehaved earlier, and the scroll wheel now behaves normally and so does the page down key.
    I upgraded to firefox 4.0, and told it to restore the tabs I had had open in the previous firefox version. The scroll wheel had behaved normally in that version.
    I have not closed and restarted firefox since the upgrade. I don't recall what version I had been running, but I generally upgrade promptly when a new version is available, so I was probably on the latest of the previous series.

    Try to close and restart or even reboot the computer to see if that helps. Sounds that the Ctrl key somehow got stuck in Firefox because zooming is the behavior if you press Ctrl and use the scroll wheel.

  • After a few minutes, the page down won't work without clicking the mouse pointer on the page I am reading to activate page down again. Is there a way to go back to page down working every time without having to click the page first?

    Question
    After a few minutes, the page down won't work without clicking the mouse pointer on the page I am reading to activate page down again. Is there a way to go back to page down working every time without having to click the page first?

    Today, two other users reported issues with the back-forward history list dropping down if they hovered the mouse pointer over the back or forward button -- without clicking -- and then moved the pointer downwards. One user was on a touchpad, I don't know about the other user. Are you experiencing anything like that?

  • Where is the page up key on the bluetooth keyboard

    I'm an ex-windows guy and I'm having issues with shortcut keys in Pages & Numbers. I have downloaded whatever documents that I found.
    Ex:
    Go to previous sheet
    Command–Page Up
    Where is the page up key?
    Scroll to beginning of sheet
    Home
    Scroll to end of sheet
    End
    Where are the home & end keys?

    Page up, on a keyboard without the Page Up key is fn-up arrow; Page down is fn-down arrow.
    Add command to the combination for 'up one sheet' or 'down one sheet.'
    Home: fn-left arrow
    End: fn-right arrow
    These will scroll to the top and botom respectively of the active sheet. Note that the focus (selected cell) does not change.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • Hello, I was going to have my presentation on my macbook air. But when I putted it up on the big screen it wasn't a normal presentation. There was two pages at the time and a timer came up. How can I fix this as fast as posible? Thank's in advance.

    Your MacBook is using the big screen as the Presenter Display, and the MacBook Air display as the Show display. Tap the 'x' key to swap them during the show.
