The topic of "Carouseling scrollers" came up ("Scroll Response APIs" > segment) and I thought this proposal was worth resurfacing, as carouseling > is one of the primary use cases. > In the discussion I think we were mainly focused on scrollers with a defined start and end-point (there was confusion on the 'carousel' term here - with Google folks using it to refer to any image scroller that snaps at image boundaries, and others using it to apply only to those with wrap-around behavior). But we did agree that the web should offer some good solution for the wrap-around case. I think the blink team position would probably be that it should be possible to build such an effect on top of some primitives that are lower-level than overflow: repeat. Eg. we all agreed that it's really important to nail the infinite scroller use cases (like facebook etc.). Once you've done that, a circular scroller should really just be a special case. > Original proposal post: > http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2013Aug/0564.html > > > > On Wed, Aug 28, 2013 at 10:54 AM, Brian Blakely <anewpage.media@gmail.com> > wrote: > >> On Wed, Aug 28, 2013 at 3:12 AM, Dirk Schulze <dschulze@adobe.com> wrote: >> >>> It might get a bit tricky if you have a fixed height (or width for >>> repeat-x) and the content fits one and a half time in it.
