Description Elad Alfassa 2014-10-11 08:41:48 UTC 
While I like the animation, I encountered a case where it looks very weird.

I wanted an app that I knew would be on the bottom of the list, so I used to mouse wheel to scroll down before the animation was complete.

The icons of the next page of the list render, but the animation continues, making it look weird and unpolished.

While I think this doesn't look good, I also don't think I have a proper solution for this. Perhaps delay the reaction to the scroll event until after the animation is complete?

Delay would also be odd. I'd simply change it to not accept events while the animation is ongoing.

Yeah, that's what we ended up doing ...
