MiddleButtonScroll
Adds smooth scrolling for the middle button auto-scroll and improves the UI.
No setup necessary, it simply adds Firefox like autoscrolling to Chrome. The ability to tweak the sensitivity might come in a future version if it is requested.
For the Safari 5 version of this extension visit: http://gnuu.org/2010/06/26/announcing-middlebuttonscroll-for-safari-5/
Note: This plugin requires Chrome 5.x (beta or dev branch). There is a bug in the stable branch (4.x) that disables this plugin from working: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=29826 - to upgrade, go to http://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel
Note: This plugin will tell you it needs to access "Your data on all websites". The plugin does not actually touch any of your data (the source is freely available below for those interested), but it does need to run on all of your pages. Unfortunately, there is no way to change the scroller on your pages otherwise. This URL explains the issue in more detail: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome/thread?tid=30636989775092ba&hl=en
Note: this plugin along with all others are disabled on https://chrome.google.com (including this page) for security reasons. You'll have to test it somewhere else :)

Doesn't work still. Middle mouse does nothing. I know my middle mouse button works because I use it to close tabs.

Middle click doesn't do anything. No image, no scrolling.

Stock autoscroll framerate is 20fps. With this one, I get the full 60fps :)

Good but once you click with the middle mouse button to scroll - the scroll stamp *should* stay on screen so you can move the mouse up and down to scroll without it disappearing. Currently you have to continue to hold the middle mouse button down while you move the mouse up and down for scrolling.

Found no other way of smooth scrooling with middle button.

Great extension! This was the only thing I missed when I moved to Chrome from Firefox.

hey - could you just add an option to reverse the scroll direction, so the scroll behavior just conforms with the native OSX Lion scroll behavior? meaning: if you want to go further down you have to middle-click and drag the page upwards.. that'd be awesome!!

Extension is great, it's a true life saver in Chrome - but it doesn't work in the latest GMAIL. Can you do something about it? Cheers

Usefull app! But it would be great if there were added the ability to customize not only hold down the button, but clicking on it, like it's done in the Opera browser. Thenks!
