There are a few specific situations where it can be useful, but I added the caveat precisely because it’s generally not a good practice.
- IndySun 2mo ago>There are a few specific situations where it can be useful re scrollbars, Can you give an example?
- archerx 2mo agoAn online game for example.
- spartanatreyu 1mo agoYou wouldn't want to hide scrollbars though. You'd want to make it so either: a) There is nothing to scroll in the first place, so you don't need a scrollbar b) Capture the pointer so all interaction only occurs within the game's area.
- archerx 1mo agoSometimes things overflow and you don't want scrollbars popping in and out.
- marcomezzavilla 2mo agoSure. I was thinking of fairly narrow cases, not ordinary page scrolling: - A swipe/drag carousel with visible arrows or dots, especially a looping carousel where the native scrollbar does not represent a meaningful start and end - An accordion or expanding panel that animates to reveal all of its content. During the transition, its intermediate height may briefly produce a scrollbar (and a visual flash), even though the fully expanded state does not need one - Highly visual or experimental interfaces where scrolling is communicated through another control, or where the scrollable area is decorative and scrolling is not required to access the content
