Edge scrolling

Edge Scrolling is a feature of The Sims games that was introduced in The Sims and has appeared in all games since. It allows the player to move their view by scrolling the screen when the mouse is at its edge. However, edge scrolling cannot be used if the game is running in windowed mode.

Edge scrolling is enabled by default in The Sims, The Sims 2 and The Sims Stories, but is disabled by default in The Sims 3 and The Sims Medieval. In all games, it can be enabled or disabled from the game options screen.
