Momentum scroll #1

Did you plan on adding a momentum to the scroll, as an option of course?

asvd commented 9 years ago

Not sure yet. I am curious to implement the feature, but perhaps that would not be that useful because of the following:

On tablets you scroll with you finger on big distances, and therefore momentum helps you to scroll further with less effort. Dragscroll is probably not very convenient for scrolling on the big distances, I think it mostly helps to perform the 'fine-tuning' of the scrolling position, after you have scrolled to the needed place with a mouse wheel.

I am probably wrong with this, so let us collect here the pros and cons related to the feature.

You can do this with css: https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/momentum-scrolling-on-ios-overflow-elements/

-webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;

+1 to this feature. I'm using drag scroll on a web application meant for a touchscreen monitor. Currently when using a finger on the web app, it stops abruptly. It would be nice to have momentum to make it more smooth and perform like a iOS device. Willing to pay for this feature!

+1 for this feature, would also pay for it.
