Scroll Disable Option

Posted on by
Hi community,
I'm building a Canvas App and I have a vertical gallery that displays a fixed set of items. I need to completely disable or lock the scroll functionality on this gallery so users cannot scroll through it.
I've already tried:
- Setting ShowScrollbar to false (hides the scrollbar visually but scroll still works)
- Setting Height to CountRows(galStock.AllItems) * galStock.TemplateHeight (helps but doesn't fully prevent scrolling)
Neither of these fully blocks the scroll interaction. The user can still scroll inside the gallery with mouse wheel or touch/swipe.
What I need is a property like Scrollable = false that completely prevents any scroll interaction on the gallery.
Is there any workaround or hidden property I'm missing? And if not, I'd like to suggest this as a feature request — a native Scrollable property on gallery controls that fully disables scrolling when set to false.
This seems like a basic UX need that many app builders would benefit from.
Thank you!

    Firstly, you are correct there is no feature to disable mouse scrolling - this feature is there by design.
     
    However (I may be misreading this), I assume you only want the users to be able to view a ​​​​​​specified number of records (the ones visible when the Gallery presents), If so, in the Gallery Items, you could have
    FirstN(
       YourGalleryFilterHere
       YourRecordNumbersRequired
    )
