--- Comment #5 from Y <libreoffice13 at sfina.com> ---
It looks like a regression to me because it used to be better in a previous
version.  For a couple of years now I have been using View > Zoom > Optimal
View to maximize horizontal resolution of the document being processed in
writer and I could simply scroll up and down by moving two fingers on the
trackpad.

Suddenly, a few weeks or months ago, my same two fingers scrolling resulted in
both vertical (desirable) scrolling and horizontal (undesirable) scrolling.  At
first I kind of put up with it, but at some point it reached annoyance status
and this is when I started to use View > Zoom > Page Width.  The functionality
is the same, but I am loosing about 20%-25% resolution, which on a 1440x900
display becomes unusable; and on a 1920x1080 display is barely usable.  With
View > Zoom > Optimal the resolution is usable in both, but when I scroll and
do not pay extreme attention to not move my fingers left or right, I loose the
optimal view.

I do not know in which version it worked.  It is one of those things that I put
up with as annoyance until it became annoying enough to file a bug report.  So
if you want, do not call it a regression and call it a feature request, but
please, lock left-right scrolling in optimal view to make it optimal.

Thank you also for making me aware that I should not change the bug status from
NEEDINFO to CONFIRMED.  I am moving it back to UNCONFIRMED, hoping that
somebody will confirm that the behavior of scrolling left-right when in Optimal
View is detrimental to the optimal of the view.
