Horizontal scrolling is a pain in the rear and I hope most web developers stay away from it entirely. I can't think of any good reason any web page should ever scroll unless your monitor is smaller then 1024px.
- secoif 15y ago> I can't think of any good reason any web page should ever scroll… They give you a very good reason why the webpage should horizontally scroll: task boards. I've implemented and used task boards before and hit this exact same issue. Horizontal scrolling is only really an issue for those users who don't have a decent device for horizontal scrolling. On trackpads and the Magic/Mighty mouses, horizontal scrolling is very natural.
- vacri 15y agoThis is a much underrated point - side-swiping fingers is easier than vertical-swiping them.
- blindhippo 15y agoWhat is a "task board"? "Horizontal scrolling is only really an issue for those users who don't have a decent device for horizontal scrolling" Then why are you developing applications that likely an issue for most people?
