First of all, great app! instantly made me play my music loud 🙂  
Unfortunately, I cannot scroll in the app. It doesn’t matter the app-size (but nihilist…).  
Reinstalling as admin did’nt help either. There is no screen where I can grab the scroll bar and scroll down.

Version 1.0.0, On Windows 10 Pro x64. log files only shows tracks being played.

Where exactly are you trying to scroll? Have you tried the mouse wheel? we’d heard of a problem grabbing the scrollbar.

I’m on a laptop. Pressing on the scrollbar using the left button and then sliding down the trackpad.  
I will attach a mouse to see it that helps.

Yep, that works. But clicking on and thus selecting the scrollbar never works. Or forcing it to scroll down by clicking in the “darker” part below the lighter part doesn’t neither.  
And when in the main search screen, when the cursor is blinking in discovery, I can’t use the mousepad to scroll: It will select the item and nothing more The mousewheel works perfectly.

Some trackpads will mimic a scroll wheel by sliding up/down quickly at the left or right edge of the trackpad.

Thanks, I will check the trackpad settings for that. But by default, it doesn’t.

I enabled the scroll area of my trackpad, scrolling now works. For some reason I need to slide up to scroll down but I guess that’s a hardware specific feature of the Alps touchpad in my Toshiba.

Can anyone help on how do you scroll with Plexamp?

I’m on a Windows Laptop and have not been able to move down the menu. The only way I can use the app is to type the artist I want to listen to and go from there.

I cannot try the other radio features because I cannot scroll.

There is a very thin scroll bar but it’s too thin. @elan Perhaps, you can chat with the team to make the scroll bar larger so people can use it.

Thank you in advance.

There is a bug where the scroll bar doesn’t work on some systems (mine included). The alternative is to use a mouse with a scroll wheel. Check your laptop touchpad settings and see if there is an option to turn the very edge of the touchpad into a scroll wheel.

Will Plex fix this issue in the future? Perhaps it would be best to make the scroll bar larger? That should help.

Yeah, we’ll look into it in the future for sure. It’s an annoying bug.

Hoping this is fixed soon - makes using plexamp very cumbersome having to plug a mouse in to use it.

Having the same problem on Windows 7 Pro SP1 x64, the scroll wheel works but grabbing the scroll bar doesn’t.
