[jira] [Commented] (CB-6231) Better approach for preventing rubberband in Windows Phone 8

["Roberto De Simone (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6231?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14133726#comment-14133726 ] 

Roberto De Simone commented on CB-6231:
---------------------------------------

This issue is marked as a minor problem - I think it is a serious problem. As soon as there is a <div> with overflow, the WebView bounces. There is no way to prevent the bouncing with the help of CSS - neither with the @-ms properties. The setting "this.CordovaView.DisableBouncyScrolling" prevents the WebView bouncing but scrolling is not really possible anymore. Make also a research on the web for the bouncing WebView - many people are looking for solutions. Maybe this problem has to be addressed to Microsoft. A bouncing WebView is not a nice user experience for a native app!

> I've been looking for a good solution for the "DisallowOverscroll" setting that works on Windows Phone 8; I've tried the {{this.CordovaView.DisableBouncyScrolling}} setting, but it has the side effect of making "intended" scrolling feel really sluggish, because it only responds to swipes and doesn't track real-time under one's finger.
> Using [this approach|http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21652548/bouncing-when-overflow-set-to-auto-or-scroll-in-wp8-webbrowser-control], I came up with an alternate implementation that works in the same scenarios as {{DisableBouncyScrolling}}, but feels a lot nicer. Note that with _both_ implementations, if inertia causes the scrolling to hit the top or bottom, you still get a small bounce -- I don't think there's any way to avoid that on WP8 at the moment.
> I thought I'd share it here, in case you'd like to add it as another option in the WP8 Cordova implementation. I'm happy to attempt a pull request if you'd like (just not sure the best place for the JS code to live if it's part of the 'system').
> {code:title=BrowserMouseHelper.cs|borderStyle=solid}
>             // This goes in the Border_ManipulationDelta event handler
>             var preventScroll = _browser.InvokeScript("eval", new string[] { "(function(delta) { return isScrollingPrevented(delta); })(" + e.DeltaManipulation.Translation.Y.ToString() + ")" }) as string;
>             if (preventScroll == "true")
>             {
>                 e.Handled = true;
>             }
> {code}
> {code:title=.js file|borderStyle=solid}
> // This goes in a JS file that's part of the app; I'm using jQuery, but it can be written without that dependency
> isScrollingPrevented = function(delta) {
> 	var scrollTop = $(document).scrollTop(),
> 		top = scrollTop === 0,
> 		bottom = scrollTop + $(window).height() === $(document).height();
> 	return ((top && delta > 0) || (bottom && delta < 0)).toString();
> };
> {code}
