VERY advanced Scroll challenge

Hi @Koen_van_Niekerk2, Thanks so much for reaching out about the prototype challenge! Our community is always here to lend a hand where we can!

From your description, it sounds like something related to apply scroll overflow in both directions (horizontal and vertical) to a frame. But I’m not sure.

Also, we’re having some trouble playing the video you shared. Could you kindly re-share it with us? We’d love to understand the specifics of what you’re trying to accomplish.

We’re looking forward to hearing back from you soon! And of course, if anyone from our community has insights or suggestions, don’t hesitate to jump in!

Thanks,

Hi @Junko3 .

Thanks for your quick response. What I am looking for is more than regular Scrolling in both directions. It is hard to explain without the movie. It is a quick time movie. Can you indicate in what format I should upload (or link to) the movie for you to see it?

thanks!

Koen

Here is the link to video: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/o919ohjk6nbsvv0zx2h1k/DoubleScroll_FreezeRowAndColumn.mov?rlkey=simng6bqow90cbusyouupk5tq&e=1&st=yyg11qc6&dl=0

What Koen is trying to achieve is Freeze Pane like in Excel.
Lemme try this and get back to you guys!

Ok, so I did this:
1st Column with n Rows, no scrolling
2nd Column with nxn table, horizontal scrolling
Grouped these in single frame, vertical scrolling
Now the issue is, when I hover on Column 2, horizontal scrolling works, but not vertical.
And on 1st column, vertical works but not horizontal.
So, I have move cursor to specific ‘side’ to make scrolling work.

Hi Vishal,

Thanks for taking up the challenge!

If you think you may have (the beginning of) a solution, could you post a link to your file, to see how you solved it?

regards,

Koen

Here you go.
I guess, I am using trackpad so scrolling is sensitive, but it does work somewhat.

Hi Vishal

Thanks for sharing. I checked out your solution and used it to try to indicate what it is I am aiming at (see image)

Well, I’ve spent quite a time on this and seems it isn’t possible using out-of-the-box features.
I just ended up creating a workaround for ‘demo’ purpose.
Created 2 Variants of the table and switched the scrolling by clicking on Header or 1st Column.
So if you want to make Column sticky, click on the column, if Header, click on Header.
It starts with sticky column.
I know it isn’t what might be intended behavior, but hope some other member might help out.
I have updated my Figma file. Do check it out!
