YACReader has some kind of weird custom scroll smoothing which makes it really difficult to scroll with a trackpad.
I would ofthen like to view comics as actual size or fit width, but the scrolling makes it practically impossible to use.

I haven't seen any other Mac software employ this sort of scrolling. Even a small scroll gesture can easily take you to the next or previous page.

Is there a way to turn this off and make the scrolling work as in other programs?

@Lbstr sorry I deleted your post by mistake.

Yes, you are totally right, the scroll with a track pad in macos just sucks. I want to improve it but it is not easy, YACReader uses a page by page view which makes hard to implement a continuous scrolling. There are plans to change the view to use continuous rendering but that will not happen soon.

You can use the keyboard for navigating...

What do you think about using gestures instead of scrolling?

It's the same problem with the Magic Mouse, unusable.

With the keyboard is disturbing, when we change the reading direction (manga) is not taken into account and you must press the key -> to turn the page to the left :)

Unfortunately, using the trackpad is still the big pain :(
May be it possible to make the option to disable the transition to the next page when scrolling? Because sometimes even small scroll can move you on several pages ahead

I am working on it. There will be specific code for handling mouse/wheel, and specific code for high res input that will support gestures.
