[](https://www.npmjs.com/package/perfect-scrollbar)[](https://travis-ci.org/utatti/perfect-scrollbar)
***To read documentation for versions < 1.0, please visit [`v0.8.1`](https://github.com/utatti/perfect-scrollbar/tree/0.8.1).***
## Why perfect-scrollbar?
perfect-scrollbar is minimalistic but *perfect* (for me, and maybe for mostdevelopers) scrollbar plugin.
* No change on design layout* No manipulation on DOM tree* Use plain `scrollTop` and `scrollLeft`* Scrollbar style is fully customizable* Efficient update on layout change
I hope you love it!
## Demo
It's on the [GitHub Pages](http://utatti.github.io/perfect-scrollbar/).

## Before using perfect-scrollbar
The following requirements should meet.
* the container must have a `position` style.* the container must be a normal container element.
The following requirements are included in the basic CSS, but please keep inmind when you'd like to change the CSS files.
* the container must have an `overflow: hidden` css style.* the scrollbar's position must be `absolute`.* the scrollbar-x must have `bottom` or `top`, and the scrollbar-y must have `right` or `left`.
Finally, scroll hooking is generally considered as a bad practice, andperfect-scrollbar should be used carefully. Unless custom scroll is reallyneeded, using browser-native scroll is always recommended.
## Caveats
perfect-scrollbar emulates some scrolls, but not all of the kinds. It also *does not* workin some situations. You can find these cases in [Caveats](https://github.com/utatti/perfect-scrollbar/wiki/Caveats).Basically, items listed in the caveats are hacky to implement and may not beimplemented in the future. If the features are really needed, please considerusing browser-native scroll.
## How to use
First of all, please check if the container element meets the requirements andthe main CSS is imported.
```html<style> #container { position: relative; width: 600px; height: 400px; }</style><link rel="stylesheet" href="css/perfect-scrollbar.css">```
Import via ES modules:
```jsimport PerfectScrollbar from 'perfect-scrollbar';```
Or in browser:
```html<script src="dist/perfect-scrollbar.js"></script>```
To initialise:
```jsconst container = document.querySelector('#container');const ps = new PerfectScrollbar(container);
// or just with selector stringconst ps = new PerfectScrollbar('#container');```
It can be initialised with [options](#options).
```jsconst ps = new PerfectScrollbar('#container', { wheelSpeed: 2, wheelPropagation: true, minScrollbarLength: 20});```
If the size of your container or content changes, call `update`.
```jsps.update();```
If you want to destroy the scrollbar, use `destroy`.
```jsps.destroy();ps = null; // to make sure garbages are collected```
If you want to scroll to somewhere, just update `scrollTop`.
```jsconst container = document.querySelector('#container');container.scrollTop = 0;```
You can also get information about how to use the plugin from code in [`examples/`](examples).
## Options
### `handlers {String[]}`
It is a list of handlers to scroll the element.
**Default**: `['click-rail', 'drag-thumb', 'keyboard', 'wheel', 'touch']`
### `wheelSpeed {Number}`
The scroll speed applied to mousewheel event.
**Default**: `1`
### `wheelPropagation {Boolean}`
If this option is true, when the scroll reaches the end of the side, mousewheelevent will be propagated to parent element.
**Default**: `false`
### `swipeEasing {Boolean}`
If this option is true, swipe scrolling will be eased.
**Default**: `true`
### `minScrollbarLength {Number?}`
When set to an integer value, the thumb part of the scrollbar will not shrinkbelow that number of pixels.
**Default**: `null`
### `maxScrollbarLength {Number?}`
When set to an integer value, the thumb part of the scrollbar will not expandover that number of pixels.
**Default**: `null`
### `scrollingThreshold {Number}`
This sets threashold for `ps--scrolling-x` and `ps--scrolling-y` classes toremain. In the default CSS, they make scrollbars shown regardless of hoverstate. The unit is millisecond.
**Default**: `1000`
### `useBothWheelAxes {Boolean}`
When set to true, and only one (vertical or horizontal) scrollbar is visiblethen both vertical and horizontal scrolling will affect the scrollbar.

**Default**: `false`
### `suppressScrollY {Boolean}`
When set to true, the scroll bar in Y axis will not be available, regardless ofthe content height.
**Default**: `false`
### `scrollXMarginOffset {Number}`
The number of pixels the content width can surpass the container width withoutenabling the X axis scroll bar. Allows some "wiggle room" or "offset break", sothat X axis scroll bar is not enabled just because of a few pixels.
**Default**: `0`
### `scrollYMarginOffset {Number}`
The number of pixels the content height can surpass the container height withoutenabling the Y axis scroll bar. Allows some "wiggle room" or "offset break", sothat Y axis scroll bar is not enabled just because of a few pixels.
**Default**: `0`
## Events
perfect-scrollbar dispatches custom events.
```jscontainer.addEventListener('ps-scroll-x', () => ...);```
### `ps-scroll-y`
This event fires when the y-axis is scrolled in either direction.
### `ps-scroll-x`
This event fires when the x-axis is scrolled in either direction.
### `ps-scroll-up`
This event fires when scrolling upwards.
### `ps-scroll-down`
This event fires when scrolling downwards.
### `ps-scroll-left`
This event fires when scrolling to the left.
### `ps-scroll-right`
This event fires when scrolling to the right.
### `ps-y-reach-start`
This event fires when scrolling reaches the start of the y-axis.
### `ps-y-reach-end`
This event fires when scrolling reaches the end of the y-axis (useful forinfinite scroll).
### `ps-x-reach-start`
This event fires when scrolling reaches the start of the x-axis.
### `ps-x-reach-end`
This event fires when scrolling reaches the end of the x-axis.
You can also watch the reach state via the `reach` property.
```jsconst ps = new PerfectScrollbar(...);
console.log(ps.reach.x); // => 'start' or 'end' or nullconsole.log(ps.reach.y); // => 'start' or 'end' or null```
