This is a BIG issue for use of LibreBase Forms with handheld devices (something I have been looking into) - making them almost un-useable without a mouse or touchpad.

This is a real shame and something I really hope can be addressed, particularly because android/linx/windows multi-boot cross-over devices have very many uses as advanced field-data collectors ... assuming a viable interface :/

End-user Solutions might look like:

1 - a page-control-scroll-bar to place directly in a LibreBase form !!! :)
2 - customizable width/princedom of the main Libre app-document vertical scrollbar, or at least an 'Extra_Wide' setting to toggle-on for small form factor touch screens...

Thanks Libre - keep it loose, keep it open :)
