Introduction
In this article I describe how to create a Windows Store App for embedding a panning element into a horizontal panning element using JavaScript. In my previous article I described Panning and Scrolling in a Windows Store app; that for visit, Panning and Scrolling in Windows Store Apps using Java Script.
I assume you can create a simple Windows Store App using JavaScript. For more help visit Simple Windows Store Apps using JavaScript.
To start the creation of the app, add one HTML page by right-clicking on the name of your project in the Solution Explorer and select Add > new item > HTML Page and then give an appropriate name. In the same way, add images to the images folder in your project.

Write the following code in default.html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title>apps</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//Microsoft.WinJS.1.0/css/ui-light.css" />
<script src="//Microsoft.WinJS.1.0/js/base.js"></script>
<script src="//Microsoft.WinJS.1.0/js/ui.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/default.css" />
<script src="/js/script1.js"></script>
<script src="/js/default.js"></script>
</head>
<body role="application" style="background-color: lightcoral">
<center><div id="rootGrid">
<div id="content">
<h1 id="featureLabel"></h1>
<div id="contentHost"></div>
</div>
</div></center>
</body>
</html>
Write the following code in default.js:
(function () {
"use strict";
var AppTitle = "";
var pages = [
{ url: "page.html" }
];
function activated(eventObject) {
if (eventObject.detail.kind === Windows.ApplicationModel.Activation.ActivationKind.launch) {
eventObject.setPromise(WinJS.UI.processAll().then(function () {
var url = WinJS.Application.sessionState.lastUrl || pages[0].url;
return WinJS.Navigation.navigate(url);
}));
}
}
WinJS.Navigation.addEventListener("navigated", function (eventObject) {
var url = eventObject.detail.location;
var host = document.getElementById("contentHost");
host.winControl && host.winControl.unload && host.winControl.unload();
WinJS.Utilities.empty(host);
eventObject.detail.setPromise(WinJS.UI.Pages.render(url, host, eventObject.detail.state).then(function () {
WinJS.Application.sessionState.lastUrl = url;
}));
});
WinJS.Namespace.define("app", {
AppTitle: AppTitle,
pages: pages
});
WinJS.Application.addEventListener("activated", activated, false);
WinJS.Application.start();
})();
Write the following code in page.html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/default.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/chaining.css" />
</head>
<body>
<div data-win-control="app.pageInput">
</div>
<div data-win-control="app.pageOutput">
<div class="ManipulationContainer Horizontal MandatorySnapInterval">
<div class="Image_Row">
<div class="ManipulationContainer zoomElement ProximitySnapList scrollChaining row1 col1">
<img alt="1" src="/images/1.jpg" />
</div>
<div class="ManipulationContainer zoomElement ProximitySnapList scrollChaining row1 col2">
<img alt="2" src="/images/2.jpg" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
