The best way I’ve found to do so is with a locally installed copy in CHM format. That’s the Windows helpfile format. With a good CHM browser, search-as-you-type allows you to find classes and methods as fast as you can type.
The Scala 2.7.5 API is available in CHM thanks to “bongole” and his project on github, scala-api-chm. The project includes code to compile the API into CHM, but all you need is the zipped chm file, scala_api-2.7.5.zip (direct link).

To view on a Mac, the best CHM browser I’ve found is ArCHMock.
