We have a concrete proposal in https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents/issues/553 for this problem. For ease of discussion, I am re-posting below the proposal from there: > See https://github.com/vmpstr/htmldemos/blob/master/gestures/wheel-momentum.md for details. The TLDR is touchpads on all platforms have an inertial scrolling phase which in native code can be detected. Implementing this would allow authors to handle swipes or provide their own inertia handling when the application has additional information about where swipes should settle. > > TLDR, can we add a way of detecting this and if so, what's the best attribute name / values? > > @vmpstr -- GitHub Notification of comment by mustaqahmed Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents/issues/587#issuecomment-4032023021 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
