WinJS – Navigate in a ListView using mouse wheel is easy !

The listview can be considered as the most powerful control of the WinJS UI controls. It works very well in ‘touch mode’ and the user experience is just great ! When it comes to use the mouse & keyboard, the scrollbars appears and you can use them to navigate in the list. Then, the first thing you may try is to use the mouse wheel : no result at all ! By default, you can’t navigate in the listview using the mouse wheel. I think it can be really strange for user who are used to this behavior and in this post we’ll see how it’s easy to implement the mouse-wheel scroll !
