Mod List Scroll Fix
by Khajiitos
Mod List Scroll Fix corrects the Forge mod list, so its scroll bar stays within bounds after a player searches for a mod.
What it does
When a search filters the list, the scroll bar in Forge's mod list can end up scrolled past the visible entries, so matching mods fail to appear until the scroll wheel is used once. The mod keeps the list's scroll position within bounds while the search box is in use. It runs on the client only, so a server and its players need nothing extra. Files are published for Forge 1.20.1 as version 1.0, dated 2024-02-13, and the code is open source under the MIT License.

How it compares
Spawn Threading Fix is open source under the MIT License and runs on Forge 1.20.1, but it is server required with client optional, so a server needs it while players may skip it. Mod List Scroll Fix is client-side only and needs nothing on a server. ScreenShotViewer is also client-side only on Forge 1.20.1, but its license is Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial No Derivatives 4.0 and it is not open source.

What the author says
Mod List Scroll Fix is a very simple mod that fixes an issue in Forge's mod list where the scroll bar is technically scrolled down, but there is no scroll bar anymore because you entered something into the search bar. This issue is annoying if you're looking at mods that a given modpack has, and then decide to search…
