I'm desparately looking for a way to disable snap-scrolling in Excel 2016 for Mac. Basically as you scroll Excel will continually try to keep the cell you're focused on in the centered. So when you're working on a large spreadsheet and try scrolling up/down, Excel will snap you back. To say it's infuriating is an understatement - I'm close to downgrading.

Looks like this has already been answered [here](http://superuser.com/questions/47908/enable-smooth-scrolling-in-excel-for-large-cells) and [here](http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2011-macexcel/how-can-i-disable-jump-to-column-scrolling/9b5f7b12-3d72-41b5-9f13-527fc1e99e78?db=5) as not being possible... – Jeremy S.

@JeremyS., if I'm reading correctly, the ones you link to are about Excel only scrolling in whole-cell increments, whereas the OP says Excel isn't scrolling at all--it's snapping back to where he is. – Mathieu K. Mar 20 '16 at 06:55

@MathieuK.: you are right! – Jeremy S. Mar 21 '16 at 11:05

I had the same problem until I upgraded by office from 2014 to 2017. Now I have office 2017 [version 15.33 (170409)] and I can scroll by pixels using Mouse as well as Laptop trackpad. I am using MacOS Sierra version 10 operating system.

1(1) I’m not sure this is what the question is really about. (2) You say that you “*can* scroll by pixels”. Did this happen automatically, or did you have to do something to enable it? – G-Man Says 'Reinstate Monica' Sep 11 '17 at 16:58

You probably have the window on full-size. Press the Green Page Size button (top-left beside the yellow one. Resize to a slightly smaller window. Worked like a charm.
