# jQuery Mouse Wheel Plugin
|
|
|
|
A [jQuery](http://jquery.com/) plugin that adds cross-browser mouse wheel support with delta normalization.
|
|
|
|
In order to use the plugin, simply bind the `mousewheel` event to an element.
|
|
|
|
It also provides two helper methods called `mousewheel` and `unmousewheel`
|
|
that act just like other event helper methods in jQuery.
|
|
|
|
The event object is updated with the normalized `deltaX` and `deltaY` properties.
|
|
In addition there is a new property on the event object called `deltaFactor`. Multiply
|
|
the `deltaFactor` by `deltaX` or `deltaY` to get the scroll distance that the browser
|
|
has reported.
|
|
|
|
Here is an example of using both the bind and helper method syntax:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
// using on
|
|
$('#my_elem').on('mousewheel', function(event) {
|
|
console.log(event.deltaX, event.deltaY, event.deltaFactor);
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
// using the event helper
|
|
$('#my_elem').mousewheel(function(event) {
|
|
console.log(event.deltaX, event.deltaY, event.deltaFactor);
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The old behavior of adding three arguments (`delta`, `deltaX`, and `deltaY`) to the
|
|
event handler is now deprecated and will be removed in later releases.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## The Deltas...
|
|
|
|
The combination of Browsers, Operating Systems, and Devices offer a huge range of possible delta values. In fact if the user
|
|
uses a trackpad and then a physical mouse wheel the delta values can differ wildly. This plugin normalizes those
|
|
values so you get a whole number starting at +-1 and going up in increments of +-1 according to the force or
|
|
acceleration that is used. This number has the potential to be in the thousands depending on the device.
|
|
Check out some of the data collected from users [here](http://mousewheeldatacollector.herokuapp.com/).
|
|
|
|
### Getting the scroll distance
|
|
|
|
In some use-cases we prefer to have the normalized delta but in others we want to know how far the browser should
|
|
scroll based on the users input. This can be done by multiplying the `deltaFactor` by the `deltaX` or `deltaY`
|
|
event property to find the scroll distance the browser reported.
|
|
|
|
The `deltaFactor` property was added to the event object in 3.1.5 so that the actual reported delta value can be
|
|
extracted. This is a non-standard property.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Using with [Browserify](http://browserify.org)
|
|
|
|
Support for browserify is baked in.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install jquery-mousewheel
|
|
npm install jquery-browserify
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In your server-side node.js code:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var express = require('express');
|
|
var app = express.createServer();
|
|
|
|
app.use(require('browserify')({
|
|
require : [ 'jquery-browserify', 'jquery-mousewheel' ]
|
|
}));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In your browser-side javascript:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var $ = require('jquery-browserify');
|
|
require('jquery-mousewheel')($);
|
|
```
