Do you perhaps mean the Gtk3 scrollbar behavior (the scrollbar slider 
jumping to the mouse pointer position rather than advancing towards it 
in single page steps)? If so, you can change it as described here:

|$ cat ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini [Settings] 
gtk-primary-button-warps-slider = false |

Apologies if you were asking about something else.
