Anatomy
| Scrolling | native: the browser’s own physics, keys and wheel |
|---|---|
| Thumb | 4px of --ink where the browser lets it be styled; a thin ink thumb elsewhere |
| Track | none |
| Focus | the area takes focus, so the keyboard can scroll it, with the usual --state ring |
Decisions
-
Native
No scripted scrolling: a custom scroller ignores the settings visitors have chosen.
-
Nothing scrolls sideways
On the page, a bleed past the column stops at the screen’s edge.
