[PostCSS Logical Overscroll Behavior] lets you use overscroll-behavior-inline and overscroll-behavior-block properties following the [CSS Overscroll Specification].
``css
.inline {
overscroll-behavior-inline: auto;
}
.block {
overscroll-behavior-block: contain;
}
/ becomes /
.inline {
overscroll-behavior-x: auto;
}
.block {
overscroll-behavior-y: contain;
}
`
Add [PostCSS Logical Overscroll Behavior] to your project:
`bash`
npm install postcss @csstools/postcss-logical-overscroll-behavior --save-dev
Use it as a [PostCSS] plugin:
`js
const postcss = require('postcss');
const postcssLogicalOverscrollBehavior = require('@csstools/postcss-logical-overscroll-behavior');
postcss([
postcssLogicalOverscrollBehavior(/ pluginOptions /)
]).process(YOUR_CSS /, processOptions /);
`
The inlineDirection option allows you to specify the direction of the inline axe. The default value is left-to-right, which would match any latin language.
You should tweak this value so that it is specific to your language and writing mode.
`js`
postcssLogicalOverscrollBehavior({
inlineDirection: 'top-to-bottom'
})
`css
.inline {
overscroll-behavior-inline: auto;
}
.block {
overscroll-behavior-block: contain;
}
/ becomes /
.inline {
overscroll-behavior-y: auto;
}
.block {
overscroll-behavior-x: contain;
}
`
Each direction must be one of the following:
- top-to-bottombottom-to-top
- left-to-right
- right-to-left`
