Momentum Scrolling

Momentum scrolling is something we havent had as an option in the VJL directly. We excluded it initially because there were excellent JavaScript libraries especially for this (like iScroll), but in retrospect I guess it wouldnt hurt to have it in the VJL written in object pascal.

Here is a little something I slapped together the other day. Im going to make both TListbox and the ordinary content containers have an option for this.

Oooo.. sexy sexy scroller thingy!

 

Note: This supports both mouse and touch, and if you are confused about the event objects then head over to Github and snag a copy of that there. Just remove the references to units you dont have and include eventobjs.pas in your uses clause!

The call to SetInitialTransformationStyles() should be replaced with (this makes the browser mark the element for GPU, which is very fast):

    FContent.Handle.style[BrowserAPI.Prefix('transformStyle')] := 'preserve-3d';
    FContent.Handle.style[BrowserAPI.Prefix('Perspective')] := 800;
    FContent.Handle.style[BrowserAPI.Prefix('transformOrigin')] := '50% 50%';
    FContent.Handle.style[BrowserAPI.Prefix('Transform')] := 'translateZ(0px)';

Oh and it fades out the indicator after a scroll session, quite nice if I say so myself 🙂

Enjoy!
