I recently noticed problem with scroll sync on this project.
The combination of
windownever scrolling at all (you scroll other elements) and a fixed header on smaller screens meant there was literally zero scroll syncing :(This prompted me to implement a feature that's been often requested elsewhere - the ability to sync the scroll position of any element in addition to window. So far so good, so it seemed - until I realised that at different breakpoints, the element that is actually scrolling in this project switches between
mainand.mdl-layout.This renders the usual event-capturing techniques useless as a mobile broadcaster may report a scroll position from 1 element, but desktop receivers don't know what to do with the data (as they are scrolling a separate element)
This has lead to what I believe to both a unique and amazing feature of Browsersync. Given
xamount of elements, scroll position will be synced between them. Basically allows http://quick.as/996hpq2l
