-ms-scroll-chaining similar to overscroll-behavior?

[Malvoz]

Consider adding -ms-scroll-chaining as prefix for overscroll-behavior.

Note that the overscroll-behavior property allows for authors to specify on which axis overscroll-behavior applies to (by setting overscroll-behavior-{x/y}, while -ms-scroll-chaining does not allow for that type of control.

Do you want to add overscroll data to Can I Use?

Also do we have prefixed version for other browsers?

[Malvoz]

There is an overscroll-behavior suggestion on CanIUse. I have not found any other vendor prefixes. Also the new overscroll-behavior will probably have wide UA support. In which case the -ms-prefix is only of benefit in old IE browsers, I think.

Does IE 11 and Edge support -ms-scroll-chaining?

[Malvoz]

I haven't found any documentation on IE 11 and Edge, but according to this WCIG discourse comment it seems to work in Edge.

Do you want to add overscroll data to Can I Use?

The recently added data reveals -ms-scroll-chaining is supported in IE 10 + 11 and also in all Edge versions. And because neither IE or Edge supports the new overscroll-behavior I think it might be a good idea to add the ms-scroll-chaining as fallback prefix.

overscroll-behavior-{y/x} may take the values: contain | none | auto.

-ms-scroll-chaining may take values of: chained | none.

To my understanding:

overscroll-behavior-{y/x}: contain | none; would be equivalent~ to -ms-scroll-chaining: none;.

And overscroll-behavior-{y/x}: auto; equivalent of -ms-scroll-chaining: chained;
