Jittery scorlling, when displaying a lot of tags

[PaulisX]

Description

When scrolling a folder, containing a lot of other folders with tags, the scrolling is jittery, pausing after every few folders, then continuing. It finishes the scroll animation about 1 second after stopping the scrolling on mouse.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Create multiple folders (87 in my case)
2. Give every folder a tag
3. Scroll down or up fast with a single motion

Requirements

The scrolling does not jitter, stop after every few folders when folders have tags.

• is this only when tags are applied, or does it occur even without the tags?
• which layout are you using?

[PaulisX]

• This happens only when tags are applied
• The issue happens only in Details view

In this example, I do a single fast, large scroll. It scrolls down after a few folders, pauses, then continues. Noticeable in both the speed at which the folders move and the scrollbar position. The stopping after a few folders happens every time, sometimes more than once. The scroll view is at its final position, some time after i no longer touch scroll wheel. The other views don't have this issue.

Closed by accident, my bad.

I looked into this further and it turns out it's a known issue with the WinAppSdk framework we use in Files. We're going to close this issue but I'm linking the relevant issues here so you can add a comment to let Microsoft know this is affecting your workflow and usage of Files.
