Is horizontal scroll good?
Horizontal scrolling is a good option for design portfolios and photography sites where users need to go through multiple images quickly and easily. Navigating vertically in these situations is chaotic and puts a lot of strain on the user.
What is the significance of the horizontal scroll?
Horizontal scrolling is a page navigation method in which the user scrolls left and right to reveal content from the sides of the window or container.
Is horizontal scroll good UX?
Horizontal scrolling involves more effort since users typically have to move their mouse pointer to a specifically designated area on the screen and drag (while holding the mouse button) or click. In addition to this, some horizontal scrolling implementations make the design judder and hence impair user experience.
What two types of scrolling should be avoided?
There are a couple of basic scrolling problems we often see, and that you should be sensitive to. The first is horizontal scrolling, which is typically unnecessary. Unless the interaction is a carousel, a timeline, or an intentionally horizontally structured feature, you should not be seeing a horizontal scrollbar.
