What I am trying to achive is to have a Ion-list with sub categories that can scroll horizontal, and still be able to scroll all the list items vertical. Horizontal scrolling is working fine, but vertical scroll is lost. If I set **ion-scroll direction=“xy”** the **y** in direction property it only moves the specific panel, and not all the list items. Please refer to: [http://codepen.io/Hosar/pen/vOpbRb?editors=101](http://codepen.io/Hosar/pen/vOpbRb?editors=101) Any help is very welcome. ---

The problem is that you have a scroll-listener on the ion-content, to get ordinary side-scrolling. and additional to that horizontal scrollers. If you try to scroll vertically on a horizontal scroller --\> the horizontal scroller will recieve the scroll-event. So a list of horizontal scrollers with a height \> viewport height is not a good idea > **[JdMzyV](https://codepen.io/anon/pen/JdMzyV)** > > Forked from \[Hosarsiph\](http://codepen.io/Hosar/)'s Pen \[vOpbRb\](http://codepen.io/Hosar/pen/vOpbRb/)....
