onmsinertiastart event

Article
05/02/2017

Event fires once contact is removed when a move or pan has sufficient speed to continue moving. On a slow move or pan, this event might not fire.

Syntax

HTML Attribute	<element onmsinertiastart = "handler(event)">
Event Property	object.onmsinertiastart = handler;
attachEvent Method	object.attachEvent("onmsinertiastart", handler)
addEventListener Method	object.addEventListener("MSInertiaStart", handler, useCapture)

Event handler parameters

handler [in]
Type: Function

Function handler to execute.

Remarks

This event is fired once contact is removed (a finger is raised), on a movement of sufficient speed that the pointer could continue moving based on momentum. The pointer acts like an object with mass that continues moving even though the energy source (finger movement) is removed.

Examples

The following is a complete sample that enables you to interact with the screen and see the specific gesture events that are fired. Try tapping and swiping your finger or mouse on the red or blue regions and view the events that are listed.
