You can now scroll more easily through data in Excel 2007, as told in IM chat form (inspired by 37 signals’ Fireside Chat posts). BWS = me, DSM = Scott.
[08:46] BWS: heh Excel 2007 has a cool new feature
[08:46] BWS: when you’re dragging a cell down
[08:46] BWS: you know how the further you move your mouse, the faster it drags & scrolls?
[08:46] DSM: yah
[08:47] DSM: and then you whizz past where you want to go
[08:47] BWS: yes
[08:47] BWS: well in older Excel I would always end up scrolling too fast & going way beyond the last row of data
[08:47] BWS: well
[08:47] BWS: it now automatically slows down the scrolling
[08:47] BWS: when you get to the end
[08:47] DSM: nice
[08:47] BWS: kinda like how at a gas pump, if you prepay for an amount it automatically slows down
[08:47] DSM: yeah
[08:47] BWS: I think I will blog about this new scrolling thing
