And, one thing I think they did do right was to make this a user preference. And, there is something to be said for consistency.Īll that said, Apple usually gets it right. It is not necessarily the best design, but it is what we are all used to. But, why do you think the QWERTY keyboard never changes. I'm not saying there is no room for innovation in interface design. The second reason is that it simply feels wrong because we are used to the opposite paradigm. Intuitively you are controlling the scrollbar, which should operate in the reverse direction. However when you use the trackpad to scroll, there is no grab (click). It would correspond more closely to clicking a scrollable screen with a mouse and pulling in an up or down direction. I think there are a couple reasons why this "reversed scrolling" is a mistake (my opinion only).įirst of all the gesture associated with the scrollbar is different from a touch screen interface where you grab and drag. usability) researcher for years, not that I am the foremost expert but I do have some background.
