I already submitted feedback on this through the application but I wanted to make sure I reached the developers directly.  First, I'm a big fan of what the Edge team has been able to archive with the Chromium code.  Bravo!  I honestly look forward to every Dev release and it has been thrilling to watch the Edge browser grow, involve and most importantly innovate!  

 

That said, my concern is with the changes to scrolling in the 85.0.564.8 build.  Gone is the precision scrolling I enjoyed with the mouse wheel.  Replaced by a more traditional multi-line scrolling kinetic found in browsers of old.  I hope this is only temporary, but it bothered me enough I sought out this forum hoping to have the problem addressed in a future builds.

 

Thanks!
