Scrolling speed

Is there any way to adjust the speed of the scrolling action or, when using the keyboard, to adjust the increments of how much of the map is moved with one key stroke? I'm finding it difficult to fine tune where I want the map to be because the scrolling either moves too fast or too much of the map at one time.

I do agree, sometimes it's a bit too fast for precise adjustments.
The best would be to be able to adjust manually the scroll speed for mouse scrolling and keyboard scrolling separately.

I totally agree. In fact I would like to be able to turn off mouse scrolling completely.

As an old slat I always use the number-pad and/or the arrow keys. You guys are aware, that scrolling will work even smoother when you add the line:
smallram=Y in the Opart4.ini, aye? I only got 4GB RAM and it works wonder with even monster scenario maps!

Thanks for the tip, it does seem to scroll a little smoother now but, like you, I prefer to use the keys to scroll and I'm still finding that one touch on a key is moving too much of the map. For example, in the small Kasserine scenario, it seems like it moves approximately 1/3 of the map (in the North/South direction) each time. I know that I can center and drag the map using the mouse but I still prefer the keypad. Do you know of any setting to adjust that reduces the # of hexes or % of the map that is moved with each keystroke? Thanks again for your help.
