I'm creating a web app (that's mostly focused on usage in Chrome), but the 'smooth scrolling' (I guess that's what it's called, the 'extra' scrolling like on IOS) of Chrome (when on mac) gets in the way.
Is there any way to disable this via javascript?
What you're referring to as smooth scrolling is called overscroll bounce or rubber-band scrolling.
Disable iOS Overscroll but allow body scrolling
I was able to mitigate some rendering issues I was having with smooth scrolling by intercepting wheel events and moving the scrollTop
/scrollLeft
pixel positions "by hand":
function wheeled(event) {
event.preventDefault()
container.scrollTop += event.deltaY
container.scrollLeft += event.deltaX
}
container.addEventListener('wheel', wheeled, { passive: false, capture: true })
// actual render code is in the `scrolled` handler because
// there are other wheel events in the code that adjust the scroll position
container.addEventListener('scroll', scrolled, { passive: true })
Use Javascript to set the CSS style of the HTML and BODY tags.
Set their "overflow" property to "hidden".
