Map Scrolling - 5/15/2021 6:17:42 PM

Quite often, when I go to select one of the menu tabs tucked away in the far corners of the game screen, (Formations/Artillery, Airstrikes, Maps, OOB) I overshoot with my mouse movement and the entire battle area scrolls off the screen.

Would it be practicable to fix the scrolling so the battle area will always remain on screen?
Something like:

Scroll up:....North edge of battle area will not scroll down below the top of screen.
Scroll down:..South edge of battle area will not scroll up above the bottom of screen.
Scroll left:..East edge of battle area will not scroll leftwards past the right edge of screen
Scroll right:.West edge of battle area will not scroll rightwards past the left edge of screen.

At higher zoom levels, the battle area will be larger than the screen size, but scrolling would be within these limits.

One issue is that if scrolling outside the map is not allowed then the UI elements will always hide parts of the map, unless you zoom very far out.

How about disabling the "window edge map scroll" option?

Thanks. Tried that. Then I rediscovered why I didn't like it and stopped using it in the first place.

OK, back to scrolling, noticed the scroll speed setting. DUH!
