Internet Explorer Swipe Stealing Scroll

    For some reason, on a touch screen, when using Internet Explorer, the swiping hijacks the scroll event so that when you are trying to scroll down the page and touching the metaslider, the page doesn’t scroll. This is a problem because the metaslider is rather big, and to not be able to scroll down the page, users cannot view content below the metaslider. Does anyone know how to get the scroll event back for Internet Explorer?

    I found the solution. I just added this line of code in my CSS file and it worked:

    .flexslider {
    touch-action: pan-y !important;
}

    Hi there,

    Thanks for finding and posting the solution, nice that it’s CSS too.

    @codingninja – Thanks much for the CSS code to get the swipe to work. The metaslider takes up the screen of my 7″ tablet and I couldn’t scroll down to the content below the slider. Added the CSS you provided and now I can swipe. Works great! Thanks again!
