adrm Posted October 20, 2021 Posted October 20, 2021 This is something I haven't noticed in previous versions. In a 323 page 6"x9" document, the main window scrollbar only takes me as far down as (physical) pages 286/287. Never past that. If I use the left-hand Pages display to scroll to the bottom of the document, the main window scrolling behaves as expected from that point onward. And yes, I have waited a while to see if it clears up, i.e. the program is busy computing something. This happens on two computers. Windows 10 - 64-bit
Wosven Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 I think te app need time to generate the pages, like for the thumbnails, but those are made faster. I opened a 428 pages PDF, and at first like you, the right scroll bar went only to ±half the pages, but I selected an object on this page, and perhaps it was the time needed to generate the other pages, but more space appear under the scroll bar button (why is it so small?), and I was able to scroll to the last page.
adrm Posted October 21, 2021 Author Posted October 21, 2021 I was thinking that might be the case, so I waited a good while (not sure how long) for it to "catch up". I can make another test and use a stopwatch this time.
adrm Posted October 21, 2021 Author Posted October 21, 2021 Ok, here's what I did now: Loaded the document Scrolled down as far as it will go, i.e. to pages 286/287 Started a timer Scrolled up and down until 2 minutes had passed. Still not getting further down. Clicked the text frame on page 287. No change. Double-clicked inside the frame, i.e. the edit cursor was activated inside a paragraph. Now I could scroll to the end of the document. I'd still call this an issue, as it doesn't seem to be a matter of waiting for the program to "catch up"(?)
GarryP Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 I’ve also seen this many times in Publisher 1.9.2 and was hoping it would be fixed in 1.10. See my attached image where the main window is scrolled to the bottom via the scroll bar but the Pages Panel clearly shows that more pages exist further down. Using my mouse scroll wheel lets me scroll the main window down further – or clicking on a page in the Pages Panel – but that’s not always an ideal solution.
