Why do you need to coordinate your hand and eye to use a scroll bar? Don’t you use touch to scroll or a scroll wheel?

- Dalewyn 4y agoClicking/touching the scroll bar and dragging it directly is a valid way of using a scroll bar. Especially for people who come from a time when mice didn't have scroll wheels, clicking and dragging the scroll bar itself predates the convenience of whole-screen dragging (touch) and flicking the scroll wheel. Dragging the scroll bar has its benefits over touch/wheel too: It allows for quicker, longer distance travel with fewer (and in the sense that you just move your arm, also simpler) movements.
