Here is the setup: I open three windows with the html view taking up about 1/4 of the screen width on the right side. I select "windows, tile vertical". This is what I use for my personal desktop.
 
When I open another window, it opens full size. When I close it my desktop reappears. Cool. This is what I want. Now here is the problem: when I open the other window full size, the scroll does not take me down to the bottom of the screen. It stops before I reach the bottom, so that I can't access the data I am entering at the bottom. 
 
No problem, just maximize the screen, you say. But when I do that I lose all my desktop settings and I have to do create my desktop all over again. On the other hand I can put my cursor in a column and use the down arrow to go to the bottom, but a better solution is to have the window scroll work properly.
 
Problem 2: I use a thinkpad with one a little red joystick button in the middle of the keyboard. I use the joystick to scroll. With InfoQube It works fine scrolling horizontally but has never worked vertically. My computer is fine. The problem I believe is in InfoQube.
 
In the grand scheme of things these are not deal breakers, just irritants. As always, my best to Pierre and all of you who help with this fine program.

 I don't know if it's a more general scrolling issue, but I also have a Thinkpad and I also can't scroll vertically (using my TrackPoint, which hasn't had issues elsewhere). Definitely an irritant: thanks for raising this, Will.

My touchpad also fails to scroll Infoqube vertically. 

Have you tried using Katmouse (or similar) to see if you can get the scrolling to work ? Katmouse has many options and can generally get it working. In the meantime, I can contact the grid manufacturer

 I tried both Katmouse and Wizmouse, and neither improved the situation. Any luck for you, Will?

 No, I tried both and neither worked.

I'm still on 9.25 W10. Has this grid scrolling quirk been addressed in any recent versions? Just to repeat, I can't scroll through a grid (when in edit mode or not). Here's a video capture of my attempts:
1. First I drag the scrollbar down to show it's magical diminution, with which I have no problem, but then...
2. Second I try scrolling up and down with my touchpad, and as you can see, nothing happens (same for my Trackpoint).
3. Third, I actually scroll HORIZONTALLY with my touchpad, which makes the scrollbar move up and down (without any magical diminution ) and shows a taunting alternation of item backgrounds, but sadly this is all otiose.
