Jumps between Q&A blocks with visual feedback, context-awareness, and easy configuration.
Description
This userscript adds three convenient scroll buttons to Perplexity.ai that help you navigate long conversations more easily:
1. Down Arrow Button - Instantly scrolls to the bottom of the conversation
2. Up Arrow Button - Instantly scrolls to the top of the conversation
3. Mouse Icon Button - Toggles auto-scroll mode that automatically follows new content as it's generated
Features
- Apple-inspired design with clean, minimalist icons
- Teal color scheme (#20b8cd) that stands out without being distracting
- Auto-scroll functionality that follows Perplexity's responses as they're being generated
- Compact size that doesn't interfere with Perplexity's interface
- Hover effects for better user feedback
- Persistent across page navigation within Perplexity
Installation Instructions
Step 1: Install a Userscript Manager
If you don't already have one, install a userscript manager extension:
- Chrome/Edge: [Tampermonkey](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/tampermonkey/dhdgffkkebhmkfjojejmpbldmpobfkfo)
- Firefox: [Tampermonkey](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tampermonkey/) or [Greasemonkey](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/greasemonkey/)
- Safari: [Tampermonkey](https://apps.apple.com/app/tampermonkey/id1482490089)
Step 2: Install the Script
1. Click on your userscript manager icon in the browser toolbar
2. Select "Create a new script" or "Add a new script"
3. Delete any template code
4. Copy and paste the entire script code
5. Save the script (Ctrl+S or Command+S)
Step 3: Use the Buttons
1. Go to [Perplexity.ai](https://www.perplexity.ai)
2. You'll see three buttons appear on the right side of the screen:
- Bottom button (↓): Scrolls to the bottom
- Middle button (↑): Scrolls to the top
- Top button (mouse icon): Toggles auto-scroll mode
Usage Tips
- Auto-scroll button changes color when active (teal when on, gray when off)
- Use the down arrow for an immediate scroll to the bottom at any time
- Use the up arrow to quickly return to the beginning of a conversation
- The auto-scroll feature only activates when Perplexity is generating a response
- If the buttons disappear after navigation, they should reappear within a few seconds
Troubleshooting
- If buttons don't appear, refresh the page
- If auto-scroll isn't working, try toggling it off and on again
- Make sure your userscript manager is enabled for Perplexity.ai domains
Customization
You can modify the script to change:
- Button colors (change the `buttonColor` variable)
- Button positions (adjust the `bottom` and `right` values in the CSS)
- Button sizes (modify the `width` and `height` values)
- Auto-scroll speed (change the interval value in the `toggleAutoScroll` function)
