Scroll Hints

Scroll Hints

Make your website or app’s scrollable areas look amazing with Scroll Hints.

Scroll hints are elegant shadows and fades that prompt a user that there is more content if they scroll in the direction of the hint.
The shadows are intelligent and only appear on the sides that have more content.
What’s more, the hints respond to your scrolling and hide when you reach the end of the content.
It looks great on tables, grids, image gallaries, charts and more.

Note: This component requires zero configuration but can be fully customized if needed.
