Such a awesome idea! Such a poor implementation. Why is the scrollbar deciding where in the scan you are? Seems to be made for people on Apple hardware, where scrolling is very smooth, but people with normal mouse or using keyboards, are out of luck to see the details. My mouse wheel scrolls seemingly like pressing on the down arrow, so I can't really see the details without having to result to "grabbing" the scrollbar with the mouse, and slowly move downwards. Problem with that is that the page is very long, so each mouse movement is bigger than the scroll I actually want to do.
I hope in the future they implement a slider that allows you to actually see the details, because they are there, but the implementation makes it really hard to see.
Such an interesting idea though, and I really like the results. That Lego itself is so interesting helps a lot as well :)
- kraftman 5y agoI don't usually like this kind of design, but in this case I like the way it works, and how the text pauses at interesting bits. Just my 2 cents. EDIT: I just tried with the arrow keys and agree that that's not a nice experience. For me, scrolling with the mouse is much more fine-grained than using the arrow keys
- capableweb 5y agoIt works well for the bits that are annotated, yes, because the scan stops "scrolling" at that point even if you scroll. Problem happens when you're interested in something they haven't annotated.
- kraftman 5y agonot sure if its the same for you, but for me each arrow up/down is equivalent to about 15-20 scrollwheel notches of my mouse, which is enough to see the other parts.
- SamBam 5y agoI'n on a 2020 MacBook Air with the defaults for scrolling. When using the keyboard, each press of an arrow key moved the scan nearly to the next annotation. There was no way to see the parts in between.
- ChrisMarshallNY 5y agoMajor sites (The New York Times, for one, and the BBC, for another) have been doing this for "interactive stories," for a while now. In some cases, I like it. In others; not so much.
- occamrazor 5y agoOn windows, you can click the middle button and move the mouse to scroll smoothly.
- azalemeth 5y agoThis site (and its beautiful images) only worked in Chrome scrolling on a trackpad for me. Not Safari, nor Firefox, nor Chromium, but Chrome. Truly it is an IE of the modern age. (As an aside, I'd love to download the dicoms and explore them at my own pace!)
- dylan604 5y agoBreaking the law in Missouri and viewing the source of the page finds lots of class names that are Apple-specific. Whatever library is being used, ReadyMag, seems to favor the fruity variety of hardware. Not sure if there's some checkboxes to add more/less.

- alluro2 5y agoOh god, you're not joking about Missouri. I just read about how it came to be, and - well, I don't know what to say.
- dylan604 5y agoi personally will be trying to ensure this lives on in infamy through sarcasm at every opportunity. i'm in texas, so it's not often some other state does something as just obliviously dumb as the texas govt. except florida. it's neck and neck between texas and florida
- driverdan 5y agoIt works very poorly in Firefox on Mac as well. Scrolling is jerky, if I go back the page turns white, and my fans go crazy.

- rnotaro 5y agoI usually prefer to do a Middle-Mouse wheel click drag to scroll a page. It's smooth and doesn't need a lot of mouse mouvements.
- fistynuts 5y agoI read the page on an Android phone in Chrome and it worked perfectly.
