Reviews of scroll preview:
it does nothing
the only issue for me is that you can't change the shortcut (Alt a) other than that it works perfectly. and I would like to see an option to make it work automaticaly on selected websites not all of them.
This extension was okay, I just wish it would hide itself when you aren't using it/actively scrolling. It shows up, but then never goes away, so I have this big rectangle covering the top right of my screen (unless I turn it off, but I would prefer to have it on and to just disappear when I leave that section of the screen). Would be a handy tool if it wasn't so obtrusive. At the moment, it's kinda gimmicky.
