I'm wondering if it's possible to detect when a user has finished scrolling.

When dragging a scrollbar the old fashioned way, a mouseup event fires when the user lets go

When swiping on a touchscreen a touchend or MSPointerUp fires.

But if the user is scrolling via a mousewheel or some other trackpad gesture then what event[s] can be used to establish that the scrolling intention has ended?

I could do this with timeout mechanism in the scroll event handler, but ideally a single event signalling the end of the scroll is what I want.

  • I don't *think* such an event exists, but I'd love to be proven wrong. – David Thomas Jun 14 '13 at 11:07

  • Thanks for duplicates. I never seem to get good suggestions when composing the subject! Solutions accepted there are the timeout mechanisms I mentioned. – Tim Jun 14 '13 at 11:14
