I am not satisfied with the scrolling behaviour in intellij for page up, page down. It doesn't feel right. It always feels as if I get out of the scope.
Is it possible to adjust the scroll size of page up, page down? Perhaps to half a page or similar.
Since many are inquiring about this, for mac users this can be controlled globally instead by instead scrolling on page up/down using karabiner application and adding the following complex rule:

Also do note, to get smooth scrolling, consider down loading Mos application and adjust the preferences if desired.
This might have other consequences on your Mac so you might need to have to adjust other things since your page_up/down is no longer a page_up/down but mouse scrolls instead.
