I tested 7.1.2.2 version running openSUSE Leap 15.3 and also 7.2.2.2 version running Fedora Rawhide. The problem is easy to see when you have a column with some empty cells and some filled cells (just a text suffices, it does not have to be formula or anything complicated). Now I press up/down key and hold it. When the cell is empty the cursor moves with normal speed, but when it hits filled one there is some pause. When there are multiple filled cells it looks like an effect of changing the keyboard settings regarding repeat time, there is so much pausing. If you are used to normal (fast) navigation it leads to constantly overshooting the desired cells, so basically the usage is "navigate like normal" + "correct the overshooting". The last version (know to me) that worked as expected was 5.0.6.3 running openSUSE 13.2 (Harlequin).
please attach here some example file when you have the problem and write here an info from your LibreOffice's Help-About dialog (use a Copy button there)
Created attachment 175625 [details] Sheet with choppy navigation Version: 7.1.2.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 10(Build:2) CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.3; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-US (en_US.utf8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded I attached the example sheet. In my case, the filled cells are around half of the weight of the screen (window is maximized). Use arrow keys to move up and down trough entire visible portion of the sheet. Observe that while going through filled cells the movement gets choppy/jumpy.
i don't see any problem in Version: 7.3.0.0.alpha0+ / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 80a47aae1419842f4496f02028e2b49763aea25b CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.10; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: ru-RU (ru_RU.UTF-8); UI: en-US TinderBox: Linux-rpm_deb-x86_64@86-TDF, Branch:master, Time: 2021-09-13_23:40:12 Calc: threaded Can you download LibreOffice from our official site https://libreoffice.org/download , install it and try retest in it?
Ok, so I installed the newer version on openSUSE 15.3 (as I mentioned I tested Fedora Rawhide, and it has even newer version, so I didn't touch it). The choppy/jumpy effect is still there. Here is the info from the About dialog: Version: 7.2.1.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 87b77fad49947c1441b67c559c339af8f3517e22 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.3; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-US (en_US.utf8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded
Are you using X11 or Wayland? Quick way to find out via terminal: env | grep -i wayland
After executing: env | grep -i wayland nothing showed up. So I guess X11.
After upgrading same story, when cursor moves through non-empty cells scrolling slows down significantly. Version: 7.3.2.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 49f2b1bff42cfccbd8f788c8dc32c1c309559be0 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.3; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-US (en_US.utf8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded
Today I noticed something new. As reported when I move down/up/etc through filled cells, cursor movement is extremely slow (regression in behaviour). But when I press down and hold down shift key, meaning I am selecting the cells I move through the movement is completely smooth. I rephrase, I move over exactly the same cells, but when I am selecting them (by pressing shift key) there is no slowdown.
No repro with Version: 7.4.0.0.alpha1+ / LibreOffice Community Build ID: b6e0ae1b1bad5e222e21bbb4b2a158c1fc6f9779 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.13; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: cs-CZ (cs_CZ.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded Jumbo
I reinstalled entire system (i.e. openSUSE 15.3) in generic desktop mode. Then installed basic "libreoffice" and "libreoffice-calc" packages. This by default looks off (does not match the desktop look) but the speed of moving around the cells is OK. Then I installed "skin" package "libreoffice-gtk3" to match the look with the desktop (light theme, proper fonts). And here where the slowdown appears -- now moving around the cells is sluggish.

7.3.3
