horizontal scrollbar is only at the end of 200+ row database, must move automatically like header

[Alexander Pappert]

The database header moves automatically, when I scroll my 200+ rows.

The horizontal scrollbar is only at the end, so when I want to move horizontally

• at first I have to scroll at the end
• then scroll horizontally
• then scroll up again and find the row I was watching

Interesting, as a Magic Trackpad user I never noticed that. Which is a workaround, in a way, if your touchpad/trackpad/mouse supports horizontal scrolling config.

I'd report a bug to Atlassian, I did the same with 'date sorting' which took cues from the alphabet rather than the calendar and they fixed it in about 10 days.

where do I report bugs to Atlassian. Thought I would do this here, it is the group for the Beta databases release ;)

Logged in with my Atlassian account, I just went with the Contact Support option, as I was filling in the form, a chat window opened, talked to a Support Engineer about the experience, they quickly replicated the issue, created a ticket... and fixed the issue :)

I have exactly the same pain-point and would welcome a solution to this!

Hey Alexander,

I agree, this should be fixed as some users may not realise there are extra columns or not have access to other means of navigating the data. I've a few workarounds though:

1. If using a trackpad that supports horizontal scrolling, you can navigate around fairly easily. 
2. If using a keyboard & mouse, shift + scroll will activate horizontal scrolling

I also note that some keyboard commands do not affect the DB, such as "page up, page down, home, end" - I am not in a position to advise if they are an accessibility requirement but I can see how navigating more complex views could be improved for all by adding compatibility for those keys.
