Horizontal Scroll in Power Query Editor
Edit: went and tested and learnt this one new for today. CTRL + ARROW will allow you to select columns and not lose the selection, whether than selection be adjacent or not. Also checked the docs again and apparently it is in there already which I missed first time around.
I don't think that behaviour is possible, see all the shortcuts here:Keyboard shortcuts in Power Query - Power Query | Microsoft Learn
I'm pretty sure the arrow keys do that.

That isn't really scrolling though. You couldn't select a couple columns to keep, scroll for a bit then add more columns to the selection. Pressing an arrow key immediately clears the selection.
Edit: thanks for replying though. Appreciate arrow keys are good enough for most scenarios.
