Touch input with nested scrolled windows
Last modified: 2014-06-04 17:38:12 UTC
Currently, when you have two nested scrolled windows, and try to use touch input to scroll them, it's only possible to scroll the innermost one of them. At least when a scrolled window which only scrolls horizontally is nested inside one which only scrolls vertically, or vice versa, it really should forward the horizontal/vertical part of the drag to the correct scrolled window. It would be even better if it were also possible to have scrolled windows which scroll in the same direction nested inside each other, in which case the innermost one should keep scrolling for as long as possible, until the edge is reached, after which the outer scrolled windows should continue scrolling.
