I tried this already, and to be honest, scrolling is less than silky smooth right across the OS. While it’s more noticeable in Scrivener, I’m thinking this may be more of an issue with Apple’s text system. For example, I spend most of my day in VSCode which does not exhibit the issue at all: it uses its own text rendering engine, I believe.
