Scrollen Sie durch die Liste links


Explanation:
"Scrollen"
That's what every computer user says here in Germany.
Microsoft often prefer "führen Sie einen Bildlauf durch" but that's a bit clumsy, isn't it?
Corel prefer "Rollen" but it sounds strange.

However, as often in an IT context, it is better to use the English terminology, which is common in German usage

Explanation:
natürlich kann man heutzutage auch das englische Wort "scrollen" benutzen, aber "durch etwas scrollen" ist bestimmt nicht mehr grammatikalisch richtig. Eigentlich blättert man mithilfe des Rollbalkens durch eine solche Liste. Und daher kommt auch das "durch".
