Issues when smooth scrolling is enabled in Logitech Options about scroll-zoom HOT 7 OPEN

Yes, I can confirm the new app also has the bug.

I discovered the cause. The Logitech Options app installs drivers that interfere with the functions of both of the addons, as well as the Volume2 utility, and probably others as well.

That's an interesting find! Just to confirm, does Scroll Zoom missbehave even if there are no other extensions installed, or must Tweaks for YouTube be also installed? There is not much the extension can do about Logitech drivers, but I'll document the issue in the wiki.

I had been battling with this for a while. If my memory serves me, I noticed the Scroll Zoom problem well before I installed Tweaks for YouTube. I later tested a fresh profile with only Scroll Zoom & Tweaks installed installed, and Volume2 is not an addon. I'm fairly sure there is no relationship when it comes to this.

Bottom line is that uninstalling Logitech Options solved the issues with all three apps. Just to be sure, I reinstalled Logitech Options and then uninstalled to verify the results.

The good things is that Logitech options does not need to be installed for mouse/keyboard, etc.operation. As the latest version of their Unifying Software, you need it to add a Logitech device for recognition by their wireless unifying receiver. Once you do that, technically, Logitech Options is no longer needed until the next time you need to add a device, so it can be uninstalled without having any effect on the peripherals. That's how I have things now. If I need to add a device, I'll just reinstall Logitech Options, add the device, and then uninstall Logitech Options once again.

I informed Logitech. They said they would look into it.

Hello again,

I wanted to update you on this Logitech Options conflict issue.

The problem, which occurs both in Firefox and Chrome, is actually caused by enabling "smooth scrolling" in Logitech Options. Once you disable "smooth scrolling", the expected extension behavior in Firefox and Chrome returns to normal.

Thanks for sharing the workaround!

I wonder if their new app also has the same bug: https://www.logitech.com/en-us/software/logi-options-plus.html
