The Magic iPad Double Finger Scroll
I love my iPad but just sometimes it seems buggy or non-intuitive.
Two sites I use regularly use styling to reduce the visible area of a table and display a scroll bar to the side to access all rows.
On the iPad, however, the scroll bar isn’t visible. This resulted in frustration as I found the benefit of using the iPad while mobile reduced.
A little investigation online showed me a solution - interaction with these scrollable tables is through a two finger scroll.
Simple, effective, quirky and quite probably mentioned in the user guide.
Something learnt today, tick!
