Steps to Reproduce
Open a demo.
I just unable to reproduced this issue. It is working well on IE11 (and even IE10 emulator) on my win10 VM.
I rechecked.
Indeed it works with the mouse wheel, but when I try to scroll using touchpad (two fingers) it pushes up entire page and does not scroll. On Chrome everything is fine.
Could you check a two fingers scrolling on your environment please?
It works with my trackpad on MacBook. But I don’t have any windows PC with touchpad so I am not able to test it myself 😢.
It’s so weird that you can scroll with mouse wheel while failing with touchpad. They should both fire same wheel event.
The Windows 10 touchpad in the taskbar fires a scroll event. But there's a bigger issue. Touch is broken on Windows, and touchscreens are pretty much standard on most Windows machines nowadays.
Touch events are only available in Chrome and Firefox. IE/Edge don't have touch events, and never will. They use PointerEvents, which are much better as they combine mouse and touch into a single event. Chrome recently added PointerEvents, and they're sitting behind a flag in Firefox.
Here's a good tutorial on how to get started with PointerEvents, which is what Google recommends using. https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/design-and-ux/input/touch/#add_event_listeners
And everything you need to know about touch and pointer events. https://patrickhlauke.github.io/getting-touchy-presentation/
I couldn't reproduce this issue. For Edge users, you may need to check whether touch event is enabled.
That's mostly for testing purposes. Touch will always be available in Edge via PointerEvents. In other news, Firefox 59 just enabled PointerEvents for desktop. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1411467
