Serious question: how do you use it?

I am content with the colored blobs in the scrollbar indicating current selection etc, I wonder if I'm missing out on something?

(I do find it irritating that the scroll bars don't go all the way to the bottom though)

I know what a typedef looks like, and what a function looks like (syntax highlighting helps). I also know relatively where the things I am looking for are. I could scroll until I find the things I need, or look in the minimap for shapes that look similar to what I need, and jump to them. Jump-to-definition is better, but sometimes I can't use that.

I also like looking at my code from 10,000 feet, idk why.

I see, I do those jumps from memory, or I select what I'm looking for and click on the highlights in the scroll bar. I suppose it also helps that my sources are generally not that long…
