Smooth Scrolling FlowLayoutPanel with Drag & Momentum


Recommended Posts

I wanted to share a little something with FlowLayoutPanel for WinForms that feels way smoother and more natural to use. If you’ve ever wished your panel could scroll with momentum or wanted to drag/scroll like on a touchscreen, this might be just what you need.

What it does:

  • Momentum scrolling: Scroll with the mouse wheel, and it keeps moving a bit after you stop like it has inertia!

  • Drag-to-scroll: Click and drag anywhere on the panel (even on its child controls) to scroll up and down.

  • Optimized redraw: Only redraws what’s visible, so it stays fast even with lots of controls.

  • Tracks focused controls: Knows which child control is focused and lets you hook into that.

  • Thread-safe: You can safely add or clear controls from background threads.

Here’s the full code:
